GMail via RSS Feed
"Several months ago, GMail enabled POP3 access, which should have been a boon to Pocket PC users as their web interface blocked access because the browser doesn't support everything the site requires, which is valid as you'll see below. By the way, I have 50 GMail invites, so if you want one, contact me. The problem is, POP3 access for Pocket PC users is spotty at best, and maybe for all POP3 users. It is in beta after all. I have to go to my GMail settings 3-4 times a week to enable POP3 because it mysteriously gets turned off. Confused Now, for me, GMail is a mostly a read only site. I have only a few contacts I correspond with using that address, so what I really need is a way to check my emails. Google has enabled RSS feeds to your account. For all I know, this feature is months old, but it was news to me and my favorite RSS reader on the Pocket PC supports RSS authentication so I tried it out."
Our sister site has an interesting thread going about accessing your GMail using RSS feed. I got this to work on my MPx220 using NewsBreak with the same method described in this thread. Some have used other news readers and you can read about their experiences in the thread.
