This is so accurate it’s creepy.

Apple’s 1987 Knowledge Navigator, Only One Month Late - Waxy.org:

Google Apps update alerts: Search all your email on iOS devices:

Search all your email on iOS devices Released on 6/17/2011 You can now search all messages in your Gmail account with the addition of server search for Google Sync enabled iOS devices. Editions included: Google Apps, Google Apps for Business, Government and Education

I usually gloss over these Google Apps update notifications, but this one is huge. People like me who use Google Apps for email on iOS devices have been able to search messages archived on the server (ironic since this is Google).

That is no longer an issue. Clicking “Continue search on server” actually performs the search now instead of returning a persistent and annoying error message.
