Gmail Now Has iMAP Support28.10.2007 00:00 Computers Gmail users can now use IMAP to synchronize e-mail on their iPhones and desktops.
Matthew Glotzbach, product management director for Google Enterprise, announced the release of iMAP support in Gmail Wednesday at Interop New York. Glotzbach, a keynote speaker, said Gmail account holders can begin using IMAP immediately. He held it up as an example of Google's attempts at continuous innovation, saying it's one of many new features Google has added since launching Google Applications in February. "IMAP is not new, but bringing it together is," he said. David Murray, associate product manager for Google, also wrote about it in a blog posted Wednesday. "There are two online petitions I've signed in my life," he said. "One was for a "Xena: Warrior Princess" movie. The other, which I signed a few months before starting at Google, was for Gmail IMAP... It keeps the same information synced across all devices so that whatever you do in one place shows up everywhere else you might access your e-mail. For example, I can: read an e-mail in Gmail, then move it to the "Starred" folder on my iPhone, then archive it by moving it to "All Mail" in Thunderbird, then see all of those changes on my BlackBerry."
