A little gmail help
I've used the same email address for years. I like having one email address--even having a second address at work kinda bugs me, but I deal with it. Now I need to have a new gmail account to set up the phone. Sure it's free and if I don't want to use it, I don't have to, but the truth is, I do want to use it, primarily (solely??) for the push capability. So, I have set up my gmail account in preparation for the Big Day. Looking around on the settings, I see... what's this? A way of linking other email accounts! Sounds great but it has to be POP3. I do everything over IMAP. My account supports POP3, but I really want my mail to stay on the server (I'm sure I don't have to tell you the benefits of IMAP over POP3). I have full access to the mail server itself, and can make configuartion changes (procmail and such), if that helps. What my goal would be is to have a way to keep my current email address as my primary address and have it pushed to my phone so I get instant notification of incoming mail. Plus I want to maintain all mail on my current server. Anyone see a good solution here?
