I do not know if they fixed it recently or not because since I switched I never went back to POP, IMAP is just much better.

Try it, nothing to loose I guess, and the way to do it is manuelly, start with enterring your email wrong (e.g. bones20@GGG.com) and just follow the instruction in Gmail online step by step settings, it is straight forward.
Thanks dude. I understand that IMAP might be worth a try. But for a few reasons, I have always liked POP. I would go to using IMAP if only POP is not available. Few of the issues with IMAP:
- I dont want continuous updates to and pro from the MD to web for message statuses etc
- I want new copy to stay in my Inbox so that my desktop outlook can pop it out. IMAP will mark it read if I open it on my MD.
Just a few of the many annoyances not to mention the extra usage of data bandwidth.
