I realise that Gmail has a way to sync certain labels.  Is there a way to get it to not sync certain labels?  I'm subscribed to a few mailing list things (yarn and specials alerts, mostly), and those get labelled so I can see them easily.  Howevs, I don't care about them on my phone.

Is this possible?

From a Gmail answer here:

If your account has been compromised/hacked/stolen you will need to check at least all of the following things:

Account Security:
Settings -> Accounts and Import -> Google Account Settings -> Change Password [pick a new secure password]
Settings -> Accounts and Import -> Google Account Settings -> Change Password Recovery Options [verify secret question, SMS and secondary e-mail address]

Potential Spam:
Settings -> General -> Signature [make sure nothing as been added]
Settings -> General -> Vacation Responder [make sure it's disabled and empty]

E-mail Theft
Settings -> Accounts and Import -> Send Mail As [make sure it is using your correct e-mail address]
Settings -> Filters [no filters that forward or delete e-mail]
Settings -> Forwarding and POP/IMAP -> Forwarding [disabled or correct address]
Settings -> Forwarding and POP/IMAP -> POP Download [disabled]
Settings -> Forwarding and POP/IMAP -> IMAP Access [disabled]

Userscript I've found that is good for people like me, who have both Gmail and fifty billion tabs open:

Gmail title unread count:
"Moves unread count in front of title. Good for tabs so it doesn't get cut off."

If you want to also remove the email address from the title (I only use the one @gmail address, so I want this), change this line in the script from:

newval = "(" + matches[1] + ') Gmail - Inbox - ' + endval;

To:

newval = "(" + matches[1] + ') Gmail - Inbox';

Then, change these lines from:

}
return (newval);


To:

} else if (newval.match(/Gmail - Inbox - .*/)) {
endval = newval.split("-")[0] + ' - ' + newval.split("-")[1];
newval = endval;
}
return (newval);

Update.

* Benny And Joon felt very loosely put together.  However, the music was very cute.  Overall, good background movie while I cleaned my bebuggered room.

* I'm donating blood again on Caturdog.  They called, I was weak.

* [livejournal.com profile] bbbsg wants me to make a heart cannon.  Not gun, but cannon.  I could...

* I had had the Gmail theme Tree, but I am liking Beach much more.  The colours change with the time of day!  This pleases me immensely.

* I would be way more likely to gymmify if I had someone to go with.  I'll see if Josh wants to, or knows anyone.  It's hard for me to do new things like this on my own, in front of other people, on a repeated basis.

I was a little annoyed by Gmail changing its theme, but the Tree one is kind of cute.

Gmail has added this thing or I'm a doofus, I don't know which.

I go to my Gmail (standard view, not basic) by going to gmail.com.  When I do, it redirects me to http://mail.google.com/mail/#inbox. ; Not every time but often enough, it starts up scrolled down to the top of my inbox, due to that #-link there - presumably, the top of my mail list is named 'inbox', so.

I mean, you know how anchors work in HTML - it's the same as when you click on a cut tag, and the page loads already scrolled down to where the cut tag was.

(I'm pre-coffee and so cannot find all the words yet.)

*checks*  Okay apparently, every time I load Gmail and then move to a different tab, that's when it scrolls down.  If I stay on the page, it doesn't.

How do I get it to stop, without having to stay on the page?

[eta] Jeez, forgot: this is on Firefox 3, on Windows.
