Stupid G-mail question
Posted by: lafinfil
Date: December 27, 2005 01:00PM
I don't have a Gmail account but may need one as a work around for a
problem that I have with Verizon email

Can Gmail be checked and downloaded by Apples Mail application ?

If not is there another FREE email service that will work with Mail ?

Thanks

No such thing as a stupid question unless I am the one asking it! smiling smiley

AFAIK- you can POP your gmail mail. I have about 100 invites, so let me know if you want one (or 10...)

OK - I looked at the Gmail info page and can find no mention of downloading
so I assume that it is all web based.

Any recommendations for a free email that will be able to notify Mail app ?

Just adding an echo to dmann's post. I read my gmail accounts in Mail.

You can use gmail with Apple's mail program. See the link posted by pinion. I have a gmail account setup in Apple mail, so I know it works.

You can also just have your e-mail FWD'D to your preferred e-mail address.

Mail.app handles one of my G-mail accounts.

Yep, Gmail works great with Mail, and Eudora as well.
