Apple Inc. has rolled out an update for its new free operating system OS X Mavericks, addressing many issues in its Mail app.

Tech site The Next Web said OS X Mavericks 10.9.1 includes improved support for Gmail in OS X Mail, along with fixes for user with custom Gmail settings.

Many users had complained of issues in the Mail app in the first version of OS X Mavericks, which Apple had made free for download earlier this year.

"Shortly after Mavericks arrived in October, users reported compatibility issues between their Gmail service and Mail. Apple released an update to the app in early November," The Next Web noted.

It also said the update also improves the reliability of Smart Mailboxes and search in Mail, and fixes an issue that prevented contact groups from working properly in Mail.

Also, the update addresses another issue that prevented contact groups from working properly in Mail.

The update resolves an issue that prevented VoiceOver from speaking sentences with emoji, and updates Shared Links periodical when open in the Safari Sidebar, it added.
