Gmail plugin - Beta test Thread

[cameluk]

It asks me for my username and password, enter that, and I get xml text back showing me the headers of my recent emails.

Tried the plugin after that and it works fine

rebooted the pc and tried the plugin again and its fine now

No atom errors now showing in the logs now.

What browser are you using? Does it ask you for a username & password, might have to adjust your security settings.

What browser are you using?

Avant (based on IE)

Does it ask you for a username & password,

yes

might have to adjust your security settings.

Which settings?

I'll take a look.
Thanks

What happens after you put your username (gmail email address) and password in? It should load an xml page with details of unread messages in your inbox.

Yes, I get the xml page.

Now...don't know what I did, but...I have it working for one account. It works for the first account listed in config, but fails on the second account. Switched the accounts in config, and it worked for the new first account, not the second.

Also, the time shown for each message is off by 4 hours (mail sent at 12:02 pm shows 4:02 pm, I'm in USA, EDT). The account that was unable to connect shows the correct time of failure.

And, the mouse doesn't work in the gmail screen, only keyboard.

Thanks,
Roy

Hello all just wondering if anyone else has had a go with this plugin. Its working quite realiably here with a single account.

Noticed that the google servers has issues and sometimes timeouts on connections - the plugin tires to connect up to 60 times so usually gets a response in the end. Google's own Gmail Notifier has problems connecting sometimes so assume its for the same reason.

If anyone has any comments or suggestions for features / improvements please post
