ZDnet reveals some Gmail code that hints at more business centric email tool

Someone has been snooping around in the Gmail javascript code and found this little gem:

Essentially, if Gmail is enabled for other domains, businesses can update there own “MX Record” to point at mail.google.com, and google will handle all the email for that domain.

I’ve been doing quite a bit of work with small and medium businesses and I have been very surprised by the amount of @aol.com email addresses that small businesses and entrepreneurs are still using, even people with their own domains. Gmail will perform a hell of a lot better than AOL, that’s for sure.
