might be fairly old news - but its new to me Adds an icon up in the taskbar, lets you view your new messages right from there - also lets you make GMail your default application for e-mail. It's downright awesome

You can use Apple Mail for gmail now.

I prefer Web Mail...I can open archived e-mails from any computer

Agreed about the notifier for Mac. A great addition to an already strong program.
Now we just need them to enable rich text formatting when using Safari (it works on the PC side but not on the Mac side).
Lastly, what exactly do you mean by "You can use Apple Mail for gmail now"? Can you elaborate. Thx.

I think he means via POP3 access

Speaking of Gmail, has anyone else noticed a lot of downtime and delayed delivery lately? It's starting to irk me...

I use Apple mail as a pop3 client to Gmail today. Please my email is still on gmail so I can get to it from another computer.

really? didn't know it stayed online...I'll hafta try this out

Now that you mention it. I though i was the only one but yes delays of up to 24 hrs.

no delays here. Well, in Hotmail, yes, always has been a delay like that for me, going on 4 years now. But not Gmail.
