2010-05-03 08:52:43 higgs.timmy@googlemail.com description Binary package hint: gnome-gmail-notifier When I click on the applet in the notification area, rather than redirecting the browser to gmail, it tries to go to a web address which looks like: https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLoginAuth?ltmpl=default&ltmplcache=2&continue=https://mail.google.com/mail/%3F&service=mail&rm=false&Email=MYEMAILADDRESS&Passwd=MYPASSWORD&rmShown=1&signIn=Sign+in to me, this either means it is broadcasting my password for all to see (VERY MAJOR SECURITY PROBLEM) or someone only has to click on the applet whilst im not looking and they have access to pretty much everything.
