Reference.Email Extension

This extension adds a button in your Gmail messages' context menu to generate a search URL unique to this message and copy it to your clipboard. You can paste this link anywhere and give other recipients a breadcrumb to reference that specific email by.

How? Using the \"rfc822msgid\" that each email has in its metadata. The Reference.Email link auto-searches for this value and surfaces the one message that matches.


(Note: This is Gmail specific, right now.)
