I've updated checkgmail to the latest version as of today (28/11/2009) with
/usr/bin/checkgmail -update
But still when I left click on the icon Firefox opens (or opens a new tab) and takes me to the login page of gmail (with the username already set). This was not the usual behaviour, as I don't wanna login everytime I left click checkgmail.
So I tried the -no-login option, and it works oddly in my opinion. On the first time I click the checkgmail icon it just brings me to the gmail login page (without username or password preset), so I have to manually login. At this stage, if I don't close firefox, and left click again checkgmail, it logs me in without needing to enter user/pass into gmail. If I close the browser, upon left clicking checkgmail, I'm sent back to the login screen.
I find this quite unwanted because if I have to keep the browser open to autologin, then there's no real difference in using checkgmail or any other Firefox extension that checks gmail accounts.
Is it a cookie problem? Can the old, always logged in, behaviour be restoerd?
Thanks a lot for the support!
