GMail can now translate foreign-language email messages

GMail translate foreign-language email messagesThere is a new feature in GMail Labs today, user can now understand foreign-language emails by using Google automatic message translation technology. Simply enable "Message Translation" from the Labs tab under Settings, and when you receive a foreign-language email, Gmail can translate it into a language you can understand in one click.


Grab from GMail Blog:

If all parties are using Gmail, you can have entire conversations in multiple languages with each participant reading the messages in whatever language is most comfortable for them. It's not quite the universal translators we're so fond of from science fiction, but thanks to Google Translate, it's an exciting step in the right direction. I use this feature everyday to help me work with teammates around the globe (they think my Japanese is much better than it really is...shhhh!).


I tried it this morning with an email on my Spam folder. It really works!
