Doesn't seem like it's for everyone. I looked into my gmail account and it is not offered... I don't really need or want POP access (1 Gig email on my own hard drive?!?? crazy). but, this gets me thinking to what other features I may be missing... I would have thought all gmail users would get the same features.

Hey Guys, I still haven't got POP support as yet. Guess I'll be down below the list. But anyway, why does anyone require POP access ? I get ab8 10 mails a day and only ab8 one or two are worth keeping and those I keep, deleting the rest. This whole proces takes me ab8 20 mins. So why would anyone require POP ??? By the way, anyone's been able to fill up 1 GB of GMail ?? I'm trying hard.

the "New Features" just re-appeared today in my gmail account.  and the POP option setting is now available as reported. will test it later when i get the time to configure my email client app. POP would come in handy for my gmail account which handles my profesional emails... it never hurts to have a backup offline just in case emergencies arise. alperuzi is correct, it's being introduced slowly. others may have to wait a bit longer, but not too long i guess.

Ya. I noticed mine a few days ago too. Under new features... it was gone for a while but it came back and pop3 was in it.. Seriously though, i dont even need or want it. i used to like pop3 so I could use an emial client but, now I am used to gmail interface and it is pretty fast... so, i don't think i will use it.

I use to think pop3 is cool. But I don't anymore because it saves the files on your computer. I don' tneed the extra junk. And somehow when I delete the message their still on the computer when I search the comp files manually. Now adays I only use webmail. No need to waste space over stuff like that. I guess the onyl reason its good is that your not worried it can get deleted once its on your comp.

Hey Guys,
I've got the POP3 support under New Features today. I've now stopped using all other third party applictions like GPOP and Pop Goes the GMail.
I've configured my mail client The Bat and am downloading my mails happily evr since. I have even scheduled it under periodic common tasks.
From the mail address tracer, many people have found out the SMTP of google and have been using it unauthorized ; but now we all are authorized to do so !!.
Bye,
Bigyan
PS : I know how to find out the SMTP servr of any give mail id. Can anyone guide me on how to get the IMAP or POP3 server ??

QUOTE(rowita @ Dec 31 2004, 05:07 AM) alapidus the post was made for more than a month ago that time not all of the accounts had pop3 setting I just look at my account in gmail, and i can NOT find POP3 setting. It just POP (without "3") and forwarding feature. means that it just for downloading messages using i.e: outlook - can read mail offline, and can NOT send from outlook. It was similar as yahoo some years ago. Hopefully nexttime will available in my account.

While on the topic.. Gmail does not seem to place text/banner ads in emails that you download to your desktop. I suppose that is a good thing. Even the advertising in the gmail inbox seems to be within limits. On the whole, I don't mind having to endure a few text ads in my webmail inbox. The pop mail is thankfully free of any linkage. Cheers!

Gmail's pop3 access feature is being given away in parts to all account holders. That is.. if you signed up for an account before me, you'll get pop access before I do. It seems fair enough. Keep checking your inbox for a "New Features" link. I've been using mine for over a month and a half now... maybe more. You don't have to download all emails that exist in your gmail account before the date when your pop access is enabled. It offers you an option to download only those mails that arrive subsequently. Then again there is the option to save a copy of every email that you recieve in your gmail inbox while you download a copy to your computer. This seems to be the smart thing to do. You can delete your copy of the downloaded email in case it seems to take up space. Gmail will still have a copy if you ever need it. There seems to be a slight glitch with the pop3 servers though. The connection times out once in a while. This however is fairly minor.. and I'm not about to crib about it.. considering that I've paid a grand sum of zilch to get a gig of online storage space with an option to recieve my emails right on my desktop.

I have a quick question how can they do that and make money. Google puts ads in the email with related links I f you check it through popmail that how can they put ads in the email anyway. I'll have to see and check into it.

Multiple Gmail Accounts As Free Online Storage?

I came across this topic which basically says that you can use Gmail to store your files. If

account. Now if you just keep sending the invites to yourself, you'll end up with lots more
gmail accounts, isn't it? (I've tried it, you CAN create multiple gmail accounts by inviting
yourself) And that means more storage space if you use each account to store 2 GB of things right?
Could it possibly rival other premium data backup services online, most importantly...

Microsoft is generating false positives. Some affected by this "virus" say other anti-virus products
