GMail IMAP; what do I have to do?

October 26, 2007

Gmail has added IMAP support! Finally! This is great because their POP support was wacky anyway, didn't work well at all with the quirks of the iPhone, and was almost impossible to get working right in any way with my phone, the web interface, and Mail.app (which I've been told is fun).

One small snag, here it is like 4 days after the announcement, and my gmail account still doesn't have it. My wife's does; and she doesn't care at all.

Man I hate waiting.
