One of the things I found useful after setting up GTD with Gmail was the Greasemonkey script that adds a delete button to the Gmail interface. Greasemonkey, if you’ve been living under a rock, is a Firefox extension that allows a web developer to make “aftermarket” changes to an existing web site. Such as adding a delete button to Gmail.
However.
If you haven’t been living under a rock, you know that the latest versions of Greasemonkey have had serious problems. Nothing seemed to work after upgrading. This morning I found a simple fix. I upgraded to Greasemonkey 0.5.3, followed the directions, and all is well again. Even my Gmail saved searches work, for the first time. If you’ve been in Greasemonkey withdrawal like me, the craziness is over.

there’s also a Gmail preview extension for PCs where you R-click on the line in folder view and up pops a bubble showing you more/most of the message. not sure if it’s there for Macs. fwiw…
Yeah, that one’s great as well. I haven’t found myself using it as much as I thought — most of my email is in the form of one-line tasks to myself — but it sure is easy on the eyes.
