Let's assume for a minute that there's no malicious intent.

Maybe you like gmail, like me- I would like every one of our corporate clients and their employees to use gmail.
It hurts my feelings when a small business with ten employees pays a few grand a year to use m$ junk... anyhow..

So maybe like me you think if you just set them up- just like that- they'll actually use their gmail accounts.
You got a list of ten or twenty people... And you want to streamline the deal.

How should you do this?
Don't do it.

That's the answer.

Instead, do this: contact google about setting up services for a group of people.

No no.. I'm not convinced! You say. I almost have it! I'm almost able to complete a sign up with my hacks!

You know what's going to happen to your collection of mechanize calls and swanky regexes once they're working great?
Google's going to rename their css ids, or change their signup altogether- and your valuable time will go down in flames. You will be the only one who will know your suffering. It will be lonely and you will have nothing to show for it.
