You guys forget how big of a problem spam was before gmail. They won the AI arms race and basically eliminated spam as a major problem.

This is right on, along with the large amount of free storage.
also, Gmail invented the conversation format. People forget that all email prior was displayed by receive datetime desc only. finally, Gmail was the first to get Ajax right in a webmail setup, new mail just showed up without having to click a refresh or send/receive button.

It’s a shame that gmail ignored long-standing methods of threading email chains that other clients already had been doing for years, in lieu of their subject based 100 email limit conversations.
It’s also a shame that they also helped enforce top posting, especially considering how ludicrous it is in the context of threaded emails.
