well, you can link it with the following

https://www.google.com/account...mp;Passwd=YOURPASSWORD

and for each, you just sub in your username (no @gmail.com required) and password.

Hey...in this shortcut, where does the username and password go?

If my username was jlesley and my password was br549 what would the link be?

Thanks,
Jeff

That doesn't really make since, as that link just links to the main Google search page.

As far as a shortcut goes, I just make sure that the "remember password" option is checked at the Gmail login page, and it only prompts for my password once every few weeks. Also, you could use the Gmail Notifier program by Google to act as a shortcut that resides in the system tray.

the link doesn't make sense because copying and pasting the text of the message cuts the link up. AT probably cuts them short so that these pages are not forever wide.

with the following link, right click and do "save link address" or equivalent.

https://www.google.com/account...mp;Passwd=YOURPASSWORD

paste into notepad or word or whatever. replace YOURUSERNAME with your username, and YOURPASSWORD with your password.

This worked for me.
