Secure Gmail Notifier using hidden preference setting
Authored by: UberFu on Jul 09, '07 04:09:30PM
Well - not sure about the Notifier [never used it]

BUT - I dug thru the Gmail Widget [which I use constantly] and the initial request goes out to http://www.google.com/mail - but a little farther down the code - it uses 2 https calls for authentication_

I went and switched the intital request to https [didn't break it] and loks like it's rather secure - for web security_
