@Orthills
Closing an email account wouldn't remove the old emails from Google's servers, so it would have no effect on the traceability of your emails.

Hi, Thanks for your reply. But, I want to know that even if I have closed my Gmail account, can they (cyber police or google ) still track my home address or some other information to reach me?

There is no way to know for sure - but I believe it's very likely that Google keeps some for of records for some amount of time that they could be compelled to turn over to the authorities even after you've closed your account.

Hi, Actually, someone was threatening me that he would complain about me to POLICE OR ANY OTHER SECURITY AGENCY. And, he would find my address from the emails I sent to him. We exchanged a couple of mails through Gmail. So, I have deleted my gmail account. Now, can anyone locate my correct address or Google would still keep my record of emails and locate my address?

Only with the help of law enforcement. Otherwise it's unlikely. Here are two articles already on Ask-Leo! addressing this concern
What Can People Tell From My IP Address
Can I Get Someone's Name and Address From Their IP Address?

make this experiment :
Send an email to yourself
you will see appear a new email in your inbox
undo sending ... the email will disappear ...
do the same experiment with two windows (one sending, the other one receiving) you will be able to see the content of the email and to undo sending in the meanwhile ...

so Gmail is doing some tricky stuff when it comes to google's user ?

@Anand

See if you have the flash uploader enabled. If you do, you'll need to have the flash plugin installed in your browser, which may be your problem.

AOL allows you to "unsend" mail to other AOL members (if you use their mail program of course - I use Thunderbird). However, it can only be done with OTHER AOL members (I assume it is held in some AOL server somewhere waiting to be opened). It would be nice if the entire Internet used a system that EVERYBODY to use (other than AOL of course), then this feature could be implemented throughout.

From Gmail website :

Gmail labs aren't yet compatible with all of our supported browsers. Labs are available only in Internet Explorer 7.0+, Firefox 2.0+, Safari 3.0+, and Google Chrome. You won't see a 'Labs' tab in your Settings if you're not using the newer version of Gmail on the browsers listed above. Please note that if you're using Internet Explorer 6.0, you will not have Gmail Labs.

it seems the Labs tab does not appear in all language versions of GMail. Why is that?

Google's choice, I would assume.
