Gmail to Support POP3 (and Pocket PCs?)
Posted by Janak Parekh in "SITES & RESOURCES" @ 01:00 PM
Ever since Gmail hit beta, I've seen requests and comments about its inability to be used with Pocket PCs. There's good news in that regard: Google is in the process of rolling out POP3 support, which in theory should work just fine with the Inbox applet in Pocket PCs.
Apparently, some accounts already have this (although mine doesn't). Incidentally, it requires SSL -- but WM2003 and up have this built into Inbox, so that shouldn't pose a problem. If you happen to have a Gmail account with this functionality and have tested it on your Pocket PC, report back and let us know how it works.
