    The single biggest improvement you could make to the new email (other than providing a way to go back to the old one) would be to provide page-based folders vs. the single page "load as you scroll" system you have. In the old e-mail, if I wanted to go to the bottom of the list, it was simple. Now I have to s-l-o-w-l-y scroll through 10,000 messages if I want to pull up something old. NOT good!!!! The BEST option would be to allow pages but also provide a "go to page #" option to make it easier if I want to skip a few hundred pages but not go all the way to the bottom. Another reason pages are superior: culling spam! When I check my e-mail after a weekend, I can easily have 150+ messages awaiting me, and 95% or more are spam I wish to delete. With page-based e-mail, I can "select all" and then unselect the one or two I want to keep, delete the rest, and repeat a couple of times. I can't do that now, because "select all" grabs my entire inbox - not just the most recent 50 messages. So I have to delete them ONE BY ONE - this is NOT progress. Sticking ads in the middle of my inbox does nothing but make me angry. If you MUST include ads, please leave them off to the side - don't insert them into my message list. While I can see message threading as being potentially helpful in some situations, please make it easy to turn off, and please make it easy to remove the message history when replying. I often use "reply" to start a new, unrelated conversation (it's quicker and easier than composing a new e-mail) and don't want any ties to prior content.
