Hi, Before the multiple signin feature, there were lots of blog posts written about being able to permalink to a specific message by copying the URL:
http://www.labnol.org/internet/gmail-emails-have-permanent-web-address/6811/ http://email.about.com/od/gmailtips/qt/et020606.htm But the multiple signin feature now distinguishes between the three possible accounts with just an index, which is dependent on the order in which you signed into them: https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/ https://mail.google.com/mail/u/1/ https://mail.google.com/mail/u/2/ Thus, gmail URLs only work if the index stays the same. If the index is different, the permalink silently fails. e.g.: https://mail.google.com/mail/u/1/#all/13b3e6531c3498f3 Will load the inbox unless the message with that ID actually exists for whatever account exists at "u/1". If I switch computers, or log in in a different order, all the permalinks break. * Is there any way to link to a specific message for a specific account?* Something like this would be ideal: https://mail.google.com/mail/u/[email protected]/#all/13b3e6531c3498f3 Which would either redirect to the correct multiple sign-in URL ("u/0", "u/1", "u/2") if you are signed into "[email protected]", or redirect to a login page for that account.
