gmail is teh duxnutz

Google, is there anything you cannot do?

awesome

f*** yeh thanks for that heardy. I'm posting from my ipod right now and I've gotta say that i was a bit disappointed with the mail app to the point where I find it easier to just browse to HTML version of it with safari. This looks like it will be ten times better. Just need the option to become available in gmail settings.

thats so hot!

For some reason I can't enable this in my gmail account :(

don't panic - their blog says its coming:

And remember, we're rolling out IMAP starting today, so if you don't see it in "Settings," don't worry, it will be there soon.

i'm happy to try, i didn't like the gmail java app either.. anyone recommend a good mail client for WM6?

Has this been enabled for anyone yet?? I'm still waiting...

That's awesome. I might actually use my Gmail accounts now.

IMAP >>>> POP3. The idea is that with IMAP your mail is stored centrally. You just access it from whatever location you're at. With POP3 you download your emails to the local machine. If you mark an item read with IMAP on 1 PC, it is read on another. If you do this on POP3 it isn't the case.

Still not on mine

I have it enabled on mine, but I don't see myself using it, for the moment at least. I like the web interface and the threaded conversations they have in Gmail.

i <3 the gmail app.

nope mine still isn't enabled :(

mine is, but im not going to use it;

can't see much use for it right now, but i've enabled it

still waiting here too

seems enabled on mine, but I've used the POP thing to let thunderbird check my gmail for years now. It works so I see no reason to use this IMAP doohickey.

For you guys who have it - do you login/out of gmail all the time? My gmail is pretty much logged in 24/7... just wondering if that might have something to do with when I'll get it :O

I'm usually logged in all day at work, then I'll sometimes log in when I get home. So yeah, I usually log in/out at least once a day.

So I can set up outlook with gmail IMAP and I can check it via web or my home pc and it will mark emails as read?

that's my understanding of it.

I logged into mine for the first time in months the other night so I'd say that's a yes I log in and out :)

I've got the imap now; I actually logged out and then logged back in and just noticed it - not sure if it was there before I logged out today, but it wasn't there 2 days ago

Woo, GMail IMAP is pretty nice :)

Yeh works f***ing sweet on my iPod.

It seems that the only option I have on my iPod is to delete emails rather than archive them... am I missing something? I guess that means I'll just read them on the go then archive when I get to my PC.
