A few days after its release, the new Gmail Labs “Message translation” has been enriched by a new, really helpful, feature.

Now, if you receive a message you will be able to translate it “on the fly”, without having to mess with the Gmail settings.

Once a new mail is received, the space between the message header and body will show two buttons that will allow you to choose the languages of choice.

Here is an Italian message.

Here is the English translation.

I also tried a more complex language, but I really don’t have a clue about the results. Is it working?
