Gmail’s New POP Fetching Feature

By: Nathan Weinberg | Source: webpronews.com

Gmail added a new feature that lets Google’s mail site retrieve email from up to five additional email accounts in a single Gmail account.

So long as your other email has POP access (like your work email, but not always your Hotmail), you can dump it all into Gmail, letting you manage all your email accounts from one place. If you love Gmail’s interface, this feature is a godsend (although not all accounts have it yet).

Now Gmail can check for the mail you receive at your other email accounts. You can retrieve your mail (new and old) from up to five other email accounts and have them all in Gmail. Then you can even create a customized ‘From:’ address, which lets you send messages from Gmail, but have them look like they were sent from another one of your email accounts. Please note that you can only retrieve mail from accounts that have POP3 access enabled.

This feature is currently only enabled for a limited number of users. We’re working on making it more available soon. Look for it in the ‘Accounts’ tab in Settings.
