Default https access for all Gmail accounts is currently being rolled out. This will only affect Google Apps domains that have not already forced SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) connections for their users in the Google Apps Control Panel.Editions included: Standard, Premier, Education and Partner EditionsLanguages included: All languages supported by GmailHow to access what's new: This change is being rolled out automatically so there is no action to take. - Premier and Education Editions only: Administrators can force SSL connections for all users in the Control Panel. In the Control Panel, go to 'Domain Settings', 'General', and then enable the checkbox for 'SSL' that will automatically force SSL connections when users access Gmail, Calendar, Docs, and Sites. When this option is enabled, users do not have an option to disable https in their individual Gmail Settings. - If the 'SSL' checkbox is not enabled in the Control Panel by an administrator or your domain is on an Edition without that option, then this change will make https the default for Gmail for all users. Individual users will still be able to disable this in their Gmail Settings by selecting "Don't always use https".For more information: http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2010/01/default-https-access-for-gmail.html http://www.google.com/support/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=100181 Get these product update alerts by email Subscribe to the RSS feed of these updates

Improvements to recurring events and Tasks in Google Calendar have been made: - You now have the ability to change locations, add attendees, and change event descriptions without having the meeting break out of the series of recurring events. - Tasks in Calendar is now available in 38 languages.Editions included: Standard, Premier, Education, Team and Partner EditionsLanguages included: Tasks: All languages supported by Google Calendar except Hebrew/ArabicHow to access what's new: - In Calendar when modifying an event, when you change the time, title, description, location, or attendees of an individual meeting in a series, that meeting now remains part of the series. - If you change the title, description, location, or attendees of a series of events, these changes will be applied to all events in the series, including those that have overridden fields. However, Calendar will intelligently keep track of what fields you override, and not change those fields e.g. if you change the location of one particular event instance in the series, then later modify the location for the entire series and give it a new title, the one particular event will be updated with the new title but the location will remain at what you had overridden. - Changing the time or frequency of any series still resets all information in the series, even those that have been manually overridden. - If you make any changes to a series and apply to "All Following", it will reset all information in all future meetings, and the future meetings will be become a new distinct series. This will override any fields that you may have manually overridden.For more information: http://www.google.com/support/calendar Get these product update alerts by email Subscribe to the RSS feed of these updates
