After enabling the labs feature you have to go back into settings to actually turn it on and enable it -- the default appears to be the most recent year's worth of email. Can also manage some exceptions by label. Pretty cool stuff :-) Hmm, not sure how to manage what labels it decided to use when going back furtherr in time.

Although, since I have an Android phone I technically have some sort of offline Gmail. Chris, I wonder how long it will take to download it all, "every last gigabyte." Definitely time it and tell us!
