find this very useful. one click tracking...as opposed to click on UPS' link, paste tracking #, click on their disclaimer checkbox, then submit button to get tracking info

gmail-tracking
 
You can also paste your tracking number into a google search and it will return a link.

EDIT: And I find it funny that they scan the email for tracking numbers. I wonder what else they scan for?

i believe they look for key words in emails and provide ad links via those key words. Some are quite useful too. I remember last spring a couple friends and I had an ongoing email conversation about vacationing and travel agencies. Well one of the links gmail provided were for a low-cost travel agency. I ended up not going, but my friends went and had a blast. later they thanked me for giving them the travel agency's info. I took the credit too 😉
