There have been some sync issues between chrome and Gmail for some time now. Things like spell check wasnt functioning properly. Maybe they just don't like each other.

Version 53 is 5 months old anyway ... if you're not keeping up with releases you're a security risk anyway.

The thing is, I have mine set to automatically update, and I lost at least one thing here on the forums that I needed. lol It wasn't a major thing, more like a time saver...anyway, I went ahead and downloaded and installed from that article and the missing feature is back. So I don't know. I'm not going to complain that's for sure. :biggrin:

Just bright enough to ensure it rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again ...

But, hey, thanks for the feeble attempt with that cliche ...

Just use a good email client. I haven't checked my email via browser in years.
