If you used www.gmail.com SSL secured, privoxy can not fake anything
and the real user-agent of your browser is send to gmail.

To fake the user-agent for SSL connections, you have to fake it in
your browser, because no proxy can change SSL secured data.

Go to "about:config" in your firefox address line an add a new config
value (string) by right click with your mouse and choose " Neu -> String"

   general.useragent.override

The value vor this config string is your:

   Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)

Thats all, have fun
