Hi Milan, I have been testing it, extensively.  It's not that the
option is not available, but that authentication doesn't persist.  AI
claims it's an issue with accessing the KDE wallet rather than the
Gnome one.

Currently I've got it working so that it only asks me to re-
authenticate once at the beginning of the each day.  Good enough for
the moment but not ideal.  I run a script on login that creates the
keyring sockets and starts gnome keyring.  Not sure why that loses the
authentication overnight (when the machine isn't logged out).

I understand they've scanned it already, but I don't want my mail
sitting on Google's server.

Mark
