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.

I think the fact that people are still having problems with Gmail is a sign... that people need to drop Gmail as quickly as possible. This is the second major company (Microsoft isn't having much luck with Gmail either) that has had to bend over backwards because something "breaks Gmail support".

Couldn't help notice, but shouldn't it be
Mail 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?

We recently dropped Gmail completely and couldn't be happier. Other IMAP email services work great in the Mail app. Gmail's nonstandard IMAP implementation is a headache and is the only oddball. Other email clients have problems with it as well. In this day and age with mobile devices and tablets, I'm finding very little need to ever visit a website to access my email so Gmail had to go.
That reminds me of the funniest line
"Google is in favor of open standards"
Laugh with me.

The biggest bug I've had so far in Mavericks would be multitouch gestures and the two-finger horizontal scrolling. It seems to happen a lot in Launchpad, and it's 100% consistent in third-party applications such as µTorrent.

Apple has benefited in many ways thanks to Googles contributions. There's plenty of business for everyone, no need to be jealous of Google. :)
