Login no longer works #2

Login was working fine yesterday, but today it seems like something has changed with Google Voice that is preventing me from logging in. Tried it on two different computers (mac osx 10.6 and 10.7) with the same result.

Sometimes google changes their markup.

The login parsing code is extremely simple: https://github.com/tempire/perl-google-voice/blob/master/lib/Google/Voice.pm#L27

Take a look at the markup returned by Google and see what they've changed; if you find it, I'll make the change. Even better, fork and submit a pull request. I'll be able to update the module much faster that way.

I was just now able to login & send an sms message; it's unlikely Google has changed their login markup in any significant manner.

It's plausible that they might have different practices with different types of accounts or in different parts of the world; whatever you find could still be helpful.

I just tried it again today and it works. Maybe there was a wrinkle in the Internet?

Thanks for your help, it is much appreciated.

The latest release increases the max_redirects, which may have been a cause.
