These repeated discussions about gmail and ssl make me wary of ever using their webmail service, or for that matter any other webmail service with Tor. Just because a website is secure at the moment, doesn't mean they wont make changes in future which leak your sessions.

It is considerably safer to use gmails secure imap/smtp services rather than their webmail with Tor imo. More bandwidth friendly too.
