make sure you DO NOT allow the phone to automatically get the settings.. then make the incoming server :imap.gmail.com and the box below IMAP4. Then the outgoing server: smtp.gamail.com then of course your log in info.. You should be good to go. I had issues getting ti to work last night also, this all worked for me.

Does using imap give you instant push or do you still have to send/recieve?

IMAP has push like message polling, but pocket outlook doesn't support that. Just checks on an interval you can set, from manual to 5 minutes or something like that.
Is the new JAVA VM still joedek? I still don't really know the differences real well anyways, lol.

This works, of course. But it's not what the original poster was talking about. This is Gmail accessed via IMAP in Pocket Outlook. The original comment was about a problem with the Gmail app, which is a java applet. While it has never worked on the Mogul, the behavior has changed.

The Gmail applet worked beautifully on the beta ROM. It's unusable with the stock java in the new ROM.
