Thanks, that is something to try.
So far, I tried to change two strings on the about:config page
(extensions.lastAppVersion and extensions.lastPlatformVersion") from
"7.0" to "3.0", and at first it seemed to work, even though those
strings were reverted to "7.0" after restarting TenFourFox.
But after a few tries GMail started to send me to the "standard view"
again.

Maybe it has something to do with cookies as well.
There's actually two points in here:
1. If possible, I'd like to get the basic view when I go to
mail.google.com using this browser.
2. If that doesn't work, I at least want to get basic view when I go
to https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=html
The first option has the added advantage that the yellow bar across
the page "You're using GMail in basic view. Update your browser, etc."
is not there.

>"if you really need"
Would I put so much energy into this if I didn't clearly prefer the
basic view? I just don't like to wait for stuff I don't need.
I'm not on a super-highspeed connection and my computer isn't that
fast either. I wonder how people in developing countries are doing, or
anyone with a dialup connection for that matter.
