New colour coding in gmail (android, nexus 4)

[coober97]

Hi - can anyone explain to me the colour coding that's now attached to each email I receive onthe left-hand side of the screen? Seems to include the first letter of the email sender.

Thanks

Can be turned off under general settings unchech sender's image if contact has picture that is displayed otherwise first letter as you deduced

Great - thanks. Was there an obvious logic behind the colours that I missed?
