gmail -- message forwarding to your cell phone?
 

does anyone use this option?

You mean like reading your email off your phone? :)

HI: I use Aim, as well as the Beta Aol mail, which notifies me of incoming paypal pyts recd, the song plays, i drive to the atm machine.. :)

And this would be at about 11:30pm, in the hummer, in your pyjamas?:p

yes, I think that is fine..

even you forward the emails to another email account then open them

BTW--you can also change your ip address on your mobile phone.
For a Palm Treo-it only involves taking out the battery-resetting the device, and turning it on again..

I am using my webhosts and gmails IMAP servers. This way you can access all of your e-mail from anywhere (e.g. Desktop, notebook, cell-phone). This way I can access my e-mail from my iPhone and when I get home and get my e-mail through outlook I can see what message have already been read and answered or flagged.

How to use IMAP with Evolution
 

I have received a message from a member and thought I'd share my answer. I tried to explain how to set up Google's IMAP with Evolution.

Hello,

I have never used evolution, but I will try to help you.
IMPORTANT: Make sure to deactivate your POP account in evolution first.

1. Login to your gmail account, click on settings and select 'Forwarding and POP'
2. Check the 'Enable IMAP' radio button
3. Open Evolution and a new mail-account (idenitity) using your name, gmail address
4. Server Type is 'IMAP', Server: imap.gmail.com:993
5. Enter your full gmail address as the username, security protocol is 'SSL' and the authentication type is 'Password'
6. Now switch to sending e-mail: Server-Type: 'SMTP'; Server: smtp.gmail.com:587
7. Check 'Server Requires Authentication'; Security is 'TLS', Authentication type: Login, username = full gmail address

Restart evolution now and the next time you click on 'send/receive' you should see gmails IMAP folders on the left. Now you can move all your exisitng e-mail you have already downloaded through POP back to the IMAP server (just mark all messages and move them over to the IMAP folder 'Inobx').
Again, do not do this step before you have deactivated the POP account, otherwise it will immediately start downloading the uploaded messages again through POP.

I hope I could help, let me know if you have any other question.
