New updates
New look and feel for Workspace Updates email subscriptions
Starting September 29, we're going to be improving the look and feel of the emails you receive when you subscribe to Workspace Updates.
The emails themselves will be sent from noreply@workspaceupdates.withgoogle.com, so be sure to update any inbox filters or labels you may have and check your spam folders if you don't immediately see them. Emails for the Workspace Updates Blog in non-English markets will update to this new format in the coming weeks. If you have any feedback about these emails after September 29th, please feel back to let us know in the linked form .
