Gmail and Windows Mobile - Working Now!
Posted by Chris Leckness on 01/31/08 in Windows Mobile 6
I don’t use gmail, so I really didn’t know that you folks were having having issues. Well, if you have been, Google says they’ve worked with Microsoft and now they have Gmail playing nice with Windows Mobile.
Since we added IMAP access to Gmail in October, we’ve heard from a number of Windows Mobile users that their Gmail IMAP experience wasn’t great — some were receiving blank messages and others could read headers but not entire messages. There are a lot of email clients out there, each with its own quirks, so making IMAP work across all of them can be tricky. We’ve worked with Microsoft engineers to debug the incompatibilities with Windows Mobile and made some tweaks to our code. As some people have already noticed, these fixes went out last week, so you should now have a better experience reading and sending Gmail messages using IMAP from your Windows Mobile device. If you haven’t yet set up IMAP, just follow the configuration instructions to get started.
