I'm not positive if my issues are related to the change in Webmail features, but I do know that these problems arose at the same time that the changes were made.
1) When my mail gets filtered into folders of my choice, there is no notification on the Inbox page that any messages have been sorted. As a result, I have failed to see some of the emails that got sorted without my knowledge.
2) Much of my mail is not filtered properly as it had been before the change.
3) For most of my filtered mail, I get multiple copies of the same email. I usually get 2 copies of an email, but from one person, I have consistently received 4 copies of every email she sends me.
Anyone else have these concerns or advice on how to deal with them?

The new webmail blows. It's slower than the old one and has irritating quirks (like when you reload a message, it takes you back to the inbox.) When it displays a series of replies, it changes colors into ones you can't see, like light gray.
The old one was clean and simple and had all the same relevant features. More technology for technology's sake.

The new webmail is horrible. There are no new visible "features" except a noticeably uglier interface.
Students: Switch to Gmail ASAP. ITS: Wake up, smell the coffee, and switch to Google Apps!

how do you turn on auto-forwarding on webmail?
