Gmail – How to Quickly Get Email URL with Preview Pane

gmail

I'm using the Lab feature preview-pane in Gmail.

How can I quickly get an email URL considering the URL bar does't change as I browse?

My best solution currently is to use Show Original Message, and use that URL, but while fast, the message is a bit verbose.

Quickly is overstating it but if you press the Print button and remove everything after the first ? to the last = and add #inbox/ in between you have yourself a link that actually works.

For example https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?#inbox/111x11x5b93c0905.

Sounds a bit complicated but takes about 10 seconds to do.
