Google released several new features today-
Autosave - this is easily the strongest new feature.
Contacts Export - You can now export your contacts into an Outlook or GMail compatible CSV file for import into Outlook or … GMail.
Google Toolbar - now has a GMail button. (not so new)
Personalized Google.com - allows reading of your GMail. (not so new)
Google Desktop Search - the new version of GDS caches your GMail messages for online or offline searches.
Well, as I stated I feel autosave is the strongest new feature. Beyond that and the contacts export these *new features* are mostly concerned with expanding the feature sets of other Google applications or more strongly tying the disparate Google product suite together.

As with David Keltie comment about adding custom From:’s..
these new function’s do not appear if you use English(uk).
i changed my set up to (US) made the changes (ie added the new from:’s) saved then went back to (UK).
i wonder if this is just an oversight from google, or another example of the “attention to detail” or lack there of in recent times.
i note that they still have no “is not Spam” filter option, this is anoying as i regulary get mailinglist mails marked as spam. when to my memory ony 2 out of the 100’s that were marked have been.
