IMAP On Gmail

I've had a Gmail account for over three years now, and whilst Gmail is fantastic, especially in giving me about 6 Gigabytes of storage, one thing I've wished for a long time is that they would add support for IMAP. I used to use POP to access Gmail, it was frustrating when using multiple computers.

Well, I was fumbling around in my settings page today when I noticed that, since November, IMAP has been enabled on Gmail. That makes me happy!

I do, as an aside, also notice you can now use Google Apps on your website. One of the advantages of this is having a Gmail account with your website address in it, but with all the perks of Google's storage space. Handy, when you're strapped for storage space on your web hosting.
