Hi Experts, I am trying to login to a secure website (here using GMAIL) using perl script. PFB script I am using. This script executes fine but it is not able to login, when I open the outfile it shows main login screen only. its not going next page. Please help me here...

use strict;
use warnings;
use strict;
use WWW::Mechanize;
use HTTP::Cookies;
my $outfile = "out2.htm";
my $url = "https://accounts.google.com/ServiceLogin?service=mail&passi
+ve=true&rm=false&continue=http://mail.google.com/mail/&scc=1&ltmpl=de
+fault&ltmplcache=2";
my $username = "<user>";
my $password = "<PWD>";
my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new();
$mech->cookie_jar(HTTP::Cookies->new());
$mech->get($url);
$mech->form_name('login_form');
$mech->field("Username", $username);
$mech->field("Password", $password);
$mech->submit_form(form_number => 1);
my $output_page = $mech->content();
