Access Gmail through a proxy ?

This is just a very rough idea. So rough that i decided its best just to paste the code rather that even let you download it, unzip it just to see what it is. Basically if (for whatever reason) are stuck behind a proxy server that will not allow you to access your Gmail acocunt then have the following bit of code set up on your site. It uses the Gmail Atom Feeds, so only the subject line and date posted gets to be displayed - until Google change this.

To be honest i'm not behind a proxy so i can't test if this actually works so ANY feedback is welcome.To see the code click more
