zoomzoomzoom Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I got the problem today. Although, the app still notified my incomming emails but I need to type the password again everytime when going to Inbox via web. I guess google updates and does not allow access the gmail through plain text username&password included link. Anyone has the similar problem with me ? The version I used is the lastest one and the problem just appeared tonight.

The version I used is the lastest one and the problem just appeared tonight. The strange things happens when I installed Microsoft Security Essentials. Because the same link that Gmail Notifier Plus generate https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogi...mp;null=Sign+in That cannot log in my account if using my machine but it does when using another one.

TonyLock Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I do not trust any Windows applications not made by Google that require you to login to web services using your Google account. Who knows if the author has put some code in there to transmit your login details to him... I've seen others that save your Google passwords on the local computer in an open format. This just nor right. Google should only let their own Windows client software connect to their services. This is a very bad trend that is starting. While I think this program is good, I hope it's the last of it's kind. Just think what a person can do if they have access to your Google account... They can have access to your Gmail, Adsence, YouTube, Analytics, Blogger, Web history, MySpace, Checkout, Calendar, Docs, Picasa, Reader, Alerts, GOOG-411. Once they get all the data out of those accounts, they can change your password so you can't log in or worse still, they can close your account.

Athernar Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 <snip> So you don't use ANY 3rd-party software what so ever then I take it? Since obviously you'll have thought this all out and realised that any software could do the same thing, regardless of function.

lolek Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 https://mail.google.com/mail/ would be the better address to open when you go to the inbox, because now I have to login every time I want to read or compose new mail. So if you change it to address I wrote, browser will remember me and open inbox without login form.

Anti018 Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 I am not sure what happened to my notifier. Each time when I click on the Icon, it always ask me to key in my password and not directly go into my mail. May I know how to fix this problem? thank you Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/777838-rel-gmail-notifier-plus-for-windows-7/page/22/#findComment-591677266 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninja-to Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Hi I installed Gmail Notifier Plus for Windows 7, and during the installation there was some weird error. Afterwards, it seems as though it had installed, but there is nothing in the Control Panel that looks like Gmail Notifier. When I click the .exe file or open the ap, I can't 'Change Settings' at all, and of course the notifier never tells me if there's new mail in my inbox. Just about the only thing that works is 'Go to my inbox' which just opens up my web browser and the gmail page. So basically, all I can do is use the ap as a link on my taskbar. I've tried to re-install, but as there's no 'Setup' file it's just an exe file that restarts the application. There is no uninstall anywhere, no folder in start menu, and I can neither remove it or put a new version in. Any suggestions?

If it bothers you that much why don't you make a dummy email account and use wireshark to watch incoming and outgoing packets? Also, gmail changed their login method, is this app going to be updated? It's pretty nice. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/777838-rel-gmail-notifier-plus-for-windows-7/page/22/#findComment-591692392 Share on other sites More sharing options...

akidd Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I love the idea of this app but if you use large fonts (which many do on 24" or larger monitors) 120dpi, you can't even read or use the settings dialog.

William Randol Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 I've got a similar application I've been working on, (None of the nice Windows 7 stuff this one has) but I just noticed that Google has disabled the old ability to automatically log in.... You used to be able to use a link with this at the start: ?service=mail&Email=(username)&Passwd=(password)&null=Sign%20in&rm=false Alas, it seems that this has been disabled. I have tried using the API to secure a token, but the mail service doesn't support it. So for now it looks like automatic logins to Gmail are not possible.

Jarasmen Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 However, if you're logged in on Gmail, links like "https://mail.google.com/mail/#inbox/12467129a9398d63" work just fine. Why not use that? Also the "About" window doesn't work for me at all. The one under "Gmail Notifier Plus" in the jumplist.
