Gmail has lot of special features and options to enhance its usage. I have mentioned many of them in the previous posts. Here is another, but very simple tip for Gmail web mail service, which is about unlocking extra stars and options. It will be useful, if you like using stars to highlight important messages in Gmail.

1. Sign in your Gmail account and click ‘Option’ button, then ‘Mail Settings’ option.
