For some time now I have been using CheckGmail to monitor both my gmail.com accounts and my sivel.net accounts. But several months ago Google changed the way that accounts are authenticated for hosted domains.

If you are experiencing this problem I suggest downloading the most recent version of CheckGmail from the CheckGmail subversion trunk. For those of you who don’t have subversion installed or for those of you who don’t know how to use subversion there is any easy way around this.

Simply issue the following command:

sudo wget -O /usr/bin/checkgmail http://checkgmail.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/*checkout*/checkgmail/checkgmail

If you currently have CheckGmail running kill it and restart it. Now you will be able to monitor your hosted domain again with CheckGmail.
