1) The progress indicator is now next to each mailbox name. But Mail seems to check much faster than it did before, so it might be hard to spot.

2) I can use the home/end keys to jump around messages. They nearly work as expected: End jumps to the end, but Home jumps up to the start of the email, not the top of the header area. This is using the Preview pane area, not a separate message window.

3) Not sure about GMail.

Thanks for the reply.
  1. Ahhh, I've got it figured out now. The Inbox must be expanded in order to see the status "pinwheels." Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Too bad they don't have an indicator for the Inbox so you can keep the accounts collapsed.
  2. Sorry, I should have been more clear. What I actually was referring to was the Inbox itself, with the list of all my messages, not a specific or individual message that is being read. After some investigation, I think I figured out why I can't do what I want. It's how Mail has the keys set up: Up/Down affects the Inbox so you can move up and down your list of emails. Page Up/Down and Home/End affects the currently selected message so you can move up and down within the message. I don't use the preview window, so this wasn't intuitive for me. Still wish I could figure out away to jump around in the Inbox message list.
