You guys should confirm that it actually is using SSL.  Run wireshark
and see if you can catch any plain text.  If I remember correctly,
someone ran some tests a while back and confirmed that even though it
was SSL for some portions of the page, your email was still in plain
text.

I believe it is. Although with gmail Manager firefox addon, there is
an option to use secure connection, so my url always says https.
