Send a message via AIM to SalvadorRuizJr
Default VersaMail and Gmail

I was able to install VersaMail and set it up to send and recieve mail. One problem I'm having is when I set my incoming prefs to only get mail from the last 7 days, it doesn't seem to want to do it. I have over 2000 messages saved up on my gmail and I dont want to transfer all of them over, nor do I want to delete any of them. Any solutions?

Someone mentioned ChatterMail before. Will that program allow me to do something like that? Or should I just stick with the Web Browser?

The real problem here is GMail - it is far from a good POP system an dyes. ChatterEmail is configurable, allowing you to sync "x" days back and with an IMAP server blows the competition away. Ben

I have thousands upon thousands of Gmail messages. The way I avoided the problem of downloading all them, is to change the POP options in Gmail to "Enable POP only for mail that arrives from now on", rather than all mail. Then I limited my Treo to picking up just new messages.

That is not the cleanest way of getting mail, but it does work. Their philosophy of how mail is delivered has problems. Ben
