stuff i want from gmail

Here are things I want added or fixed in gmail:

1. Filter list objects so I can create/manage my own "lists" such as bad phrases, whitelist or friends, etc. This would allow me to then create simple rules vs. making me create a damn rule for every phrase or sender!

2. More from link next to an email header so I can click it and instantly see more email from this sender.

3. Definite spam (e.g., phishing emails which claim to be from Paypal but which Google knows are not) should be deleted, not put into my spam folder! This is important, since gmail unfortunately has started to mark real email as spam sometimes, thus I now have to plow through my damn spam folder every day. :(

4. Not spam. When I select something from my spam folder and click "Not spam", allow me to alert sender that their email had been mistakenly marked as spam, with pointer to a Google maintained document which has info about how legitimate users can setup their email to not be marked as spam. E.g., use an email provider with some type of sender identification. I know this could be considered "dangerous" as it is a tip to spammers on how to better avoid being classified as spam but it is more important to eliminate miscategorizations of spam!

5. Super friends. Allow me to auto-whitelist email from contacts of my contacts.

6. Open sender identification protocols to allow more server whitelisting. See more details.

7. Silent spam. I hate spam so much that I don't like seeing the "spam" folder name change to bold each time I have spam.

8. Gmail advertisement filtering so I could maintain a list of keywords to block certain advertisements. (Yes, do not allow people to use this to block all ads.)

9. Annotate an email message so I can remember why I saved it etc.

10. MIME attachments usually appear as gobbledegook. Update 02oct05: Google acknowledges this problem.
