Gmail's a bit slow for me at the moment. If you're not sorted soonish I'll send you an invite when it's finally loaded here...

Thankyou very much for that, got it!

Time to see what all the noise was/is about.

Erm, can I use my gmail account to access another email account via POP?

If not, what can I use to do this? The more obscure the method, the better, for reasons you can probably guess.

telnet pop.server 110

user <your usersname>
pass <your password>
list (gives you a list of numbers, the first being message number, the second size)
retr ## (where ## corresponds to the message number found above)

If there are very many messages, use "top ##" instead of retr so that you can see the first few lines of the message and if it's what you're after...

Obscure enough for you? ;-)

Yes! The kind of thing I was lookin for. Unfortunately telnet appears to be blocked .
