Drag&drop starts a search in Firefox

Hey, can you tell how I can turn off the very old behaviour (which return in my up-to-date Quantum), that dragging and dropping a word initiates a search for an URL? F.e. i drop the word "honolulu" and Firefox checks out if there's an URL like honolulu.com and even opens it and overwriting the current tab adress. -- 212.162.41.189 (talk) 09:58, 4 September 2018 (UTC)

Gmail "sent mail" goes only through August 30th

When I look at my "sent mail" file in gmail, it shows me what I sent through August 30, and nothing more recent. What's going on? Is there some way to see things I sent more recently? Michael Hardy (talk) 21:56, 4 September 2018 (UTC)

I just checked mine and can see more recent sent mail, so it isn't a system-wide issue. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 21:59, 4 September 2018 (UTC)

• Also make sure, some POP/IMAP setting is not deleting your Gmail copy. --Titodutta (talk) 09:45, 5 September 2018 (UTC)

Gmail has recently updated to a new appearance/format/whatever. I took one look and took the option of reverting back to the "classical" version, but it may be that as a result of the change (whichever version you're now using), some setting somewhere needs to be nudged. {The poster formerly known as 87.821.230.195} 2.122.60.253 (talk) 15:01, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
