[snipped]

Gmail, as you say, is a service, so why not use an email program to
access the mail on the service?  I use Claws-Mail, but you can use
Evolution (I've never tried so is an assumption) or Balsa.  Or use
another browser such as Opera which has an in-built mail facility.

Firefox doesn't show this behaviour when I access Googlemail, so you
might just reinstall firefox to see if that cures the problem.
