> I don't know that that is the case for gmail. It is not, or at least three days ago it was not for the one of my workplaces that has farmed out their mail to Google. (That may or may not count as "gmail".) Google has, moderately recently, started forcibly logging me out - probably, expiring the "I'm logged in" cookie - every week. Much more recently, they started presenting me with a "we want JS" page on EVERY LOGIN - it used to be some kind of setting of my account that always went straight to the basic HTML view. But, so far, that page has always had three links which supposedly go to the basic HTML version, though I don't think I've tried more than one of the three. And, of course, they don't give me any address I can send mail to about any of this, but that's been true for as long as I can recall. /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mo...@rodents-montreal.org / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
