Since the 443 ports for HTTPS is filtered in Iran, is there any alternative method of logging into GMail which does not require the use of this port?

Set the "Browser Connection" option in your Gmail settings to "Don't always use https", then it should not force you to the https connection if you just use "http://"

It's nice that SjB accepted an answer to indicate the problem has been solved, but just for the archives: like noted on Super User, this option does *not* stop Google from requiring HTTPS during log in.

You can hit it via an IMAP client and use IMAPS (IMAP over SSL). Or is IMAPS blocked as well?
