I write some simple ruby code to try to get gmail atom feed:

http = Net::HTTP::new(‘[mail.google.com](http://mail.google.com)’, 443);  
http.use\_ssl = true ;  
http.start {  
request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(‘/mail/feed/atom"’);  
request.basic\_auth(USERNAME,PASSWORD);  
response = http.request(request)  
response.value  
puts response.body  
}

But it is fail…

warning: peer certificate won’t be verified in this SSL session  
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:2097:in `error!': 400 "Bad Request" (Net::HTTPServerException) from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:2106:in `value’  
from /home/carfield/respository/atomtest.rb:13  
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:543:in `start’  
from /home/carfield/respository/atomtest.rb:9

Anyone know how can I solve it? Done a brief google search doesn’t  
help…
