Checking pop3 mail in Gmail

[The Green Bean]

Is there anyway to do this? Yahoo does it but it would be great if gmail does this as well. It would be good to have all email coming to one place.

Do you mean pull your gmail down to a desktop pop3 client, or use the gmail web interface to pull pop3 feeds from other email services?

i just forward my pop3 address (which i don't really use anyway) to my gmail account.

i forward all my work pop3 mail to my gmail, and i can use gmail to send AS (or, on behalf of) my pop3 account

so say i have person@anandtech.com as my pop mail, i can use gmail to send email and it would show up as

person@gmail.com on behalf of person@anandtech.com

and when people reply, they reply to the pop3, not to gmail (but i will see the mail in both gmail and pop3 account)

For some reason my pop3 account only forwards a "copy of the mail"... I only have 2MB so Id have to download the mail every other day anyways.

You could just set up a program on any computer to download your pop3 email and delete off of the server every day or two. If you don't need to read it with that program, then there's probably something out there that will fit the bill.
