Ok, I've made a few changes because some localizations are tricky.

1) First changes

locale/en-US/error.dtd:<!ENTITY error.title
locale/en-US/error.dtd:<!ENTITY info_af.title
locale/en-US/options.dtd:<!ENTITY window.title

These have been changed to use Gmail instead of GMail. Please check your locale to see if you need such a change. I've changed the descriptions in install.rdf so you shouldn't need to worry about that file. (Thanks to Charmed94 for pointing that out!)

2) Clarity changes

locale/en-US/error.dtd:<!ENTITY info_af.body

This has been changed to use "message list" instead of "thread pane" which I think is clearer for most users. Please see if there's anything you can improve on that side.

locale/en-US/options.dtd<!ENTITY option.hide_longer_than

This has been changed because it turned out the description was quite unclear. Instead of "hide quoted parts longer than", we have "hide quoted text higher than ...". This should be easier to understand.

3) Issue with "attachment(s)"

To deal with possibly different syntax for attachments, there are two new strings: attachments_top for the light gray top text, and attachments_bottom for the text next to "save all attachments" button. Getting the plurals right is tricky, I'll try to do that properly in the next version, let's just stick with this in the meanwhile. ranvis, that should be fine for you. Please leave %s is the place where the number of attachments will go.

4) Issue with "Me"

As Sebastian pointed out, in some languages, "Me" translates differently depending on whether it's "Me to someone else" or "Someone else to Me". This has been updated too, now there are two new strings in main.properties

me_as_in_me_to=Me
me_as_in_to_me=Me

these should be pretty clear =). The first one is for "Me to ..." and the second one is for "... to Me".

Ranvis, I'd be quite happy if you could just leave "to" as in the Japanese GMail, that's getting hard to deal with.

Thanks!
