Hi, well I saw a link that says load basic HTML view once. There's now a way to set basic HTML view as your default view when signed into Googlemail, which I guess is good news for non JAWS 9 users, for example.

If the goal is to avoid advertizing iframes, an ad blocker is a better
solution than Basic HTML view.

You can access the basic HTML view directly at:

http://mail.google.com/mail/h/

See discussion at:

and see the guides to using the Basic View with screen readers at:
