Years ago I used FireWatir to drive Firefox to hit GMail; Watir
Webdriver looks to be the modern equivalent:

http://watirwebdriver.com/

require 'watir-webdriver'
b =3D Watir::Browser.new
b.goto 'bit.ly/watir-webdriver-demo'
b.text_field(:id =3D> 'entry_0').set 'your name'
b.select_list(:id =3D> 'entry_1').select 'Ruby'
b.select_list(:id =3D> 'entry_1').selected? 'Ruby'
b.button(:value =3D> 'Submit').click
b.text.include? 'Thank you'

http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/374100

Captchas would be a problem though :-)  A more reliable approach may
be to use another protocol or API for the service (e.g. REST,
Atom/RSS, IMAP).
