What to make of these traces? First, you can see that to call the contents of the
Inbox, the browser requests two URLs. First, this one:
/gmail?ik=&search=inbox&view=tl&start=0&init=1&zx=z6te3fe41hmsjo
And next, this one:
/gmail?ik=&search=inbox&view=tl&start=0&init=1&zx=781ttme448dfs9
And second, it appears that the real workings of the Inbox are contained in the
JavaScript function that starts D([“t”]), as Listings 5-10 and 5-11 show.
