I've been thinking, I have mail2web and my POP3 ISP accounts set up on Pocket Outlook. Can't Gmail be set up as POP3 as well? I think that's how I have it set up on Outlook Express on my PC.
I say this because if it's very important for someone to have outgoing e-mail from their Gmail account but they can't because they forwarded to mail2web, they could set up Gmail as a POP3, turn off auto-check, and just use it to send e-mails. |

yes it can be setup as a pop3 but Im not sure if u can forward and email from pop3 at the same time. not sure about this, but if it works it would be a solution to keeping the @gmail.com, which it doesnt matter to me

About the forwarding and still being able to send email.. yeppers it can be done. I have my gmail set to forward to mail2web and have my phone set to only download the first 2k from mail2web and then I manually download the full email via pop to my phone (or just check from the web depending on if I am currently surfing or not).

Sorry if I'm chiming in a little late, but this is a great thread! Thank you very much for the how-to! (Never knew what to set as the domain, so I thought push couldn't be done with the free account).
I need to set up a similar solution that I had on my old Blackberry but I can't seem to find a way to do it that is cost effective... I have numerous POP accounts, but really I only need one that is pushed to my handheld. I used to have that POP account forward (server-side) to my Blackberry Internet Service push email address. On the setup of that push address, I could change the From/Reply-to field to be that of my POP account. So as far as I or anyone getting the email was concerned, that email was from my POP address, not the @blackberry.net address. I know I can forward my emails to my mail2web.com push address, but if I reply, it will be sent out as the mail2web.com address. How can I get around it? Is my only way a 3rd party email solution on my handheld or a $10+ a month hosted exchange service? There's got to be something easier, no? Thanks for any suggestions! |

the cheapest way would be to do what's stated above. leave pop3s set up and email outbound from them. while just using mail2web to receive/be pushed. Are u sure u can change the outbound with a paid host? I'm not sure....but I dunno. I figure if u can do that on a paid y not the free. Also 1and1 has a cheaper push, I think. And mala uses something different I think...can't remember what he uses tho....Mala if ur reading this what do u use and how much is the service?

I can definitely have that address push, but I guess I'm just lazy and don't want to have to change over to my POP address to reply. Thanks for the info! Edited: 1and1 looks like a pretty good option! Kudos for that. |
