Has anybody got this to work in egress? Works fine Newsbreak but I get a 401 error in egress.

I've tried the non-https version as well. I'm using 2.0.3 and have set the correct user id and password for the feed.

I got the same error. I used the "https://gmail.google.com/gmail/feed/atom you@gmail.com password" (but without quotes).

One problem with this setup: The feed lists the first 15 words of every email with a link to the full email on the Gmail site, and we all know how useful the Gmail site is on the Pocket PC :roll:

I'll have to give this a whirl on the desktop tomorrow.

Default Guidance solutions for gmail

I have Gmail working 100% on Newsbreak and POP3.

Newbreak - enter the http address as noted under Newbreak site and here.

Press and hold on new channel to bring up options. Go to properties , password and enter your gmail user name but do not include "@gmail.com" and enter password.

POP3 - In the gmail settings , only tick activate pop3 for all mail received now and onwards and not "all mail" as this doesn't work properly.

Hopes this helps

Sorry for the difficulty, but the username/password in the advanced dialog don't seem to work properly with Gmail... I'll fix it as soon as I can, but for now, you should be able to use the following url as a temporary work-around:

https://username:password@gmail.goog...mail/feed/atom

Once again, I apologize for the inconvenience and will release a fix as soon as possible.

Although webismail is the best solution I've come accross to date, I felt it was worth a shot giving these other conduits a go. I tried mail2web with limited results, mainly server side delay issues, and had a go with this RSS feed...

Why is Gmail such a pain on the pocketpc? It's seriously been a love-hate relationship!

In any case, I would like to mention that WebIsMail works very well for gmail access on the pocketpc. I got the free version thanks to the news tidbit on this site, and about a few weeks later got another email from the devs saying a newer beta version was available. My free serial number they supplied with the freebie version unlocked the beta just fine, and I've been gmailing on the go ever since. FOR FREE!!!

Thanks Karl, that works fine.

See bitequator (earlier post, above) - this is why people choose Egress! The support is outstanding

Send a message via MSN to g.arcinotti

Hy all,

I'm using the NewsBreak and I understand that I can only view a very little part of email, and only of unread email, 'cause after you read an email you don't see even more the email in the Newsreader...
Can somebody tell me if there is a way to set NewsBreak soft to download more than so little part of email?
Thanks and bye

All GMail invites are gone. Thanks so much for those of you that followed the directions on how to contact. :way to go:

2 of you provided invalid addresses, and those GMail invites got wasted.

Several of you contacted me via the contact form at my personal site. What in the world would possess you to do that? :? You missed out because I wasn't checking that account. Sorry.

If I get 50 more, I'll pass those out to the 2 that are in my PPCT inbox that asked after I ran out.

That is GMail - it only puts the first few words in the RSS feed.
