does apple usually leave us in the dark when it comes to these? we'll still get an 10.9.1 update right?
Not sure about the 10.9.1 update, but it'd be so much easier to just "purchase" the version from the store. It costs nothing and you'll definitely see updates afterward.

Doesn't install on first GM:
Mail Update for Mavericks can't be installed on this disk. This volume does not meet the requirements for this update
Maybe it's a sign to get the actual release version?
not seeing this update on the first released GM copy...
Makes sense, considering that isn't the actual GM version that was released to the public.

Couldn't help notice, but shouldn't it be
I suppose it should really beMail Update 1.0 for Mavericks
And not
Mail Update for Mavericks 1.0
Mavericks isn't 1.0 it's technically 10.9. ???
Mail Update for Mavericks, 1.0
But then it's a software update not an english exam.
How? If major companies keep having trouble with Gmail ... there's a chance it has something to do with their nonstandard IMAP support. If this was just Apple, that'd be one thing. But it isn't just Apple.
Who are you kidding? All was working fine pre-mavericks... really fine... doesnt that tell u something?
usually with OS point release. Good stuff.
