Proofpoint URL Revealer for Gmail Extension

Show URLs when you hover over links when using Gmail. (With Proofpoint URL Defence Support)
Show URLs when you hover over links when using Gmail.
Link Revealer for Gmail:

Modified the source code from a Chrome Extension called Link Revealer (by Julian Xhokaxhiu) to display the hyperlink contained within a Gmail message when you mouse over the link; just like wen using Outlook to read email.

Support was also added for Proofpoint's URL rewriting functionality. When a proofpoint rewritten URL is detected, the original decoded destination of the rewritten URL will be displayed.

This extension is based upon the v0.3 release of Link Revealer

The only difference between this and the original Link Revealer, is that it has been modified to only perform the Link Reveal action on Google's Gmail website.

Original source code can be obtained here:
