Gmail Gadget Problem

I’ve been getting a lot of hits on my site because Google picked up a tweet I posted yesterday on Twitter about the Gmail Gadget problem on iGoogle. The error people are getting is:

The Gmail gadget does not support the “Always use https” setting that you chose in full Gmail. If you would like to use https, please open full Gmail. Learn more

Obviously, this is a new problem and I’ve yet to see a solution for it, besides switching to another Gmail gadget. I’ll keep you updated.

    You may also disable the option to always user HTTPS in Gmail, while this is not the best option it is a passable temporary fix.

    I hope this gets fixed soon too. A temp fix is to use a gadget based on the mobile client:

    Gmail: http://www.google.com/ig/directory?type=gadgets&url=hosting.gmodules.com/ig/gadgets/file/100080069921643878012/gmail.xml

    Gmail for domains: http://www.google.com/ig/directory?url=hosting.gmodules.com/ig/gadgets/file/114137030403598684048/GoogleAppsServices.xml

    I also hope they would release a version of the official Gmail client for Gmail for domains so that I could have both listed on the iGoogle homepage and the mobile iGoogle homepage.
