iMacros extension for Firefox

Like all Firefox faithfuls, occasionally I go to the firefox addons page and check out new extensions . There's one called iMacros which I thought of trying though having installed it quite some time back( lazy that I am ) . While playing with it I ran a few demos that come alongwith it and then thought of creating one of my own - why not one which will log me into gmail and send an mail for me .....how lazy can someone get but hey thats one of things macros exist for, dont they

So fast forward and then ater a few trials and errors , this is the macro I came up with ..its rough round the edges but atleast does the job

If you want to give it a shot, please install iMacro in your firefox or IE ( I tried this in FF 3.1b2) )

-------------------------- Copy the macro from here below -----
VERSION BUILD=6111228 RECORDER=FX
TAB T=1
URL

GOTO=https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin?service=mail&passive=true&rm=false&continue=http%3A%2F%2Fmail.googl

e.com%2Fmail%2F%3Fui%3Dhtml%26zy%3Dl&bsv=zpwhtygjntrz&scc=1&ltmpl=default&ltmplcache=2

-----Till above this line ---------



Once you have copied, name it whatever you like but give it a .iim extension or else its not an iMacro file . Place it in the C:\Documents and Settings\\My Documents\iMacros\Macros or the equivalent in linux where all the other iim files exist . Then edit this file to fill in your and the recipient email ids and you are done. Please let me know if this works for you .
