I’m not sure exactly how new this is, but I’ve just noticed when you press the select all link in Gmail/Googlemail, a new option appears which says ‘select all X conversations in “label”‘. This is great. Now you can delete all the messages under a given label without having to delete those items a page at a time. View Screenshot of this here.
A nice trick for having screen open a new tab in the same directory as the one you’re currently in. To use it add it to your .screenrc
# Open new window in current dir.
bind c stuff "screen -X chdir \$PWD;screen^M"
bind ^c stuff "screen -X chdir \$PWD;screen^M"

When you’re using a minimal Ubuntu install if you find the ‘add-apt-repository’ command is missing (it’s useful for adding PPAs and other repositories), then simply run:
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties

This is especially useful for the spam folder!
I got really over excited about this because I’ve got several thousand messages from a mailing list that I want to ditch, but when I went to get rid of them, it seems that I don’t have that feature yet.
Damn google and their phased roll-out of services!
@pixeldiva: That’s a shame. Hopefully you won’t have to wait too long.
