The logic and ability to read, star, delete from popup box is something others forget to offer in it's entirety. One tiny detail remains bad. When I log into the accounts it does not always see the accounts, but I have to go into the options and do "SAVE AND RELOAD" for it to see it. Maybe to add that "RELOAD" option in the dropdown menu or make it work in that particular case. Thank you very very much, you saved me a bunch of time, stress and energy.

But I have a request. Could you put together some setup instructions? The problem I'm having is that I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the extension to check multiple email accounts at once (I'm assuming that's what is meant by "Support for multiple accounts." I have two main Gmail accounts (one is through Google Apps as it's a personal domain) that I use regularly and would like to check both. I've set up my personal domain email that I have through Google Apps, but now I can't check the other one. I'm assuming it's possible, but I have no idea how to it unless I'm overlooking the obvious. It's a great extension so far anyway, and I appreciate your work. Keep it up! I really enjoy this extension and it’s a huge time saver. But I have a request.

I was trying to figure out why I lost access to Mail Checker Plus, and in doing so found your fork...absolutely brilliant. Sad to see the original creator essentially decided to take his ball and leave, but thankfully the extension lives on Seriously, I can’t thank you enough for this.

I've been dying over here without Mail Checker Plus, and I couldn't figure out what happened to it. I thought Google got jealous and pulled it or something. I was REALLY missing the ability to read the e-mail by just clicking the icon. So thanks for doing this! Thanks you SO MUCH!

Kaschif :

Why Bookmarks? Had to un-install it.

it was GREAT until yesterday. Now looking for something similar (may be a little less innovative.. I can live with that, but all my bookmarks??) no way.

thanks a lot
