it sounds to me like "get settings from the internet" for gmail has been updated from pop to imap, and this is probably what the guy used.
happy days, i no longer have to type it in manually --- the howto: https://mail.google.com/support/bin/...y?answer=13287 You can get the settings for windows mobile POP3 if you wish to have it the old way.. but this is supposed to be an upgrade. With a POP3 email account, emails are treated as files, either copying, moving or deleting, and downloading them will remove them from access. (Although gmail specifically breaks that rule by archiving them instead.) BUT, with an IMAP email account, all programs accessing your account will share the same online database, a mirror copy that replicates all actions. If you downloaded 50 brand new unread messages to your phone, then suddenly demolished it. Those 50 unread messages will remain on the server waiting for you to access it from any other device you setup. But with POP access you can only download them once, and not to any other device. |
