Using Gmail Notifier with https Options

In your Gmail setting now, you can turn on "force https" which ensures your always reading your Email over a SSL connection.

However if you've tried the new https setting and are using the Gmail Notifier, you've probably noticed that it doesn't work.

Good news for Windows users - we have a small download available that will set the Notifier to use https.


Here's the instructions:

1. Download http://www.google.com/mail/help/downloads/notifier_https.zip
2. Open up the folder.
3. Double-click on the file called notifier_https.reg to install it.
4. Click 'yes' when you're asked to confirm if you want to add the information to the registry.
5. Restart the Notifier.

And you're done! The Notifier will now work with Gmail set to always use https. If you decide you don't want to use that setting anymore, you'll need to install the other file in the zip folder - notifier_https_undo.reg - to reset Notifier.
