Importing gMail?

[Sivakatirswami]

OT: it's not revolution, but you can make a spreadsheet in Google docs 
where the column headers are the query labels in your form.  Or , from 
the form menu build the form and this produces the spread sheet.

Responses are posted to a spread sheet. Get all your email addresses 
lined up on the clipboard and send the form to everyone by email. (use 
the share feature...)  Some will be able to see it and fill it out right 
in their email client, others will get a link to the form on the web.  
Sit back a couple of days later you go to your Google spread sheet and 
is all there. you can have columns in the spread sheet that do not 
appear on the form, for your internal use.

i.e. possibly no need to reinvent the wheel on this one. This is one 
thing that Google seems to have gotten right... (I'm always just a bit 
disappointed with Google apps because there some gotcha or wall I keep 
running into  here and there... latest is, Google sites doesn't let you 
touch the CSS... but on  the up side they final introduced groups into 
their ACL framework.
