This still takes a little while for a few thousand mails, but it's considerably faster than downloading them all with POP.

But beware: it takes some time to download some hundreds megabytes of old mails ;-) Michael,

It does allow international cities though, but the settings disappear when you change the language, while the forecast icons stay.

Google does this pretty often, also the geotag functionality on Picasaweb is only available if you select US English. Pretty annoying, and I don’t see a good reason for it.
