I can't find any proof either way that we're using one or the other format going forward. Yes, I did look at stuff that is only on our internal network. I can't draw any conclusions from what I was able to find and read. So there's your "Gmail insider", at least from my perspective, I really can't confirm either way any better than you can. -- Shawn.
