Gmail Introducing POP Access

Over the next several weeks, Gmail will introduce POP access to all users. To make sure the feature is fully stable, they're giving users access to POP in phases. IMAP access is still not supported.



You will know when POP access is available to you when a New Features! link appears at the top of your account, along with a Forwarding and POP tab on your Settings page.

To enable POP, follow the directions in the Gmail Help Center for How do I enable POP?



There is a list of email clients with links to configuration instructions for each client. Clients include Outlook Express (Windows and Mac), Outlook, Entourage, Eudora, Netscape Mail, Apple Mail, Mozilla, and Thunderbird. Clients not on the list should be easy enough to configure by following instructions from one of the clients in the list.
