I am usually the one to answer these questions, but for some reason I can't figure out how to check my gmail account on my cell. My service is through Sprint. As far as I can tell Sprint doesn't support other pop email's.

Anyone have a good solution for this?

The only way it's going to be possible is if you can manually enter in pop addresses.

the only thing that I have found so far is to forward the email as a text message to my phone. It works, but only barely.

THis would be a great feature if we can figure out how to make it work.
Does anyone know the pop server for gmail?

can someone send me a test message to j.winklepleck@gmail.com?

I am trying to get this to work

wap.gmailwireless.com is supposed to work as the address to check your email from your phone as well.

not quite sure if I am comfortable giving my login info to a third party website....

Trying to set up pop access in my phone but I think that I need the SSL domain. Does anyone know what this is?

I set up my cingular phone to do it, but have had no luck... the ssl is what is stopping me I think.

Have you guys enable POP access to your gmail accounts?

That was my problem :s

Also keep in mind that gmail requires you to change the port to a non-standard port on one the mail servers... not sure if it's the pop or smtp.
