Really? Gmail easily failed this test with flying colors when I tried it: the second I opened the test email, gmail fetched the 1px tracking image, revealing my User-Agent (but not my IP address, granted) to the server.
How did you configure your gmail settings to pass the test? I don't think I changed the default.
- mike-cardwell 12y agoAs far as I remember, GMail's proxying solution also hides your User-Agent. It sends a fake one in its place which is the same for everyone.
