Bug Description

Binary package hint: gmail-notify

If you're accessing Gmail from Germany it's not possible to use http://gmail.google.com/ because the service is called "Googlemail" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GMail#Germany).

It should be possible to change the URL that the Notifier opens up, otherwise you have to correct it by hand each time...
