This message is being sent in gmail in Chromium running on Wine
with options --no-sandbox --use-nss-for-ssl.

(--use-nss-for-ssl turns on a new alternate https stack that works
in wine.)

This copy of Chromium was built in Wine, too.  It took 1 hour
55 minutes to compile and link from scratch using Visual C++ 2005
in Wine on a q9300.  (And that's compiling with /MP to use all
cores; wthout /MP, it takes three and a half hours, IIRC.)

See http://wiki.winehq.org/BuildAndTestChromium for easy
instructions on how to do this.
