GMAIL’s URL Parameter – shva

Today while logging into Gmail , i observed the URL and it is like this :t

https://mail.google.com/mail/?shva=1

the parameter shva interested me. I know about the SHA-1 Algorithm for Encrypting the data,so i thought it might be related to that.

But after some googling i found that,this paramter shva is an acronym for  -“SHOULD HAVE VALID AUTHENTICATION”

This comes only after the authentication is successful.
