Just when I decided to check out Gmail’s new feature, the IMAP access, on my Palm, this is what I saw on Gmail’s configuration page:
* Palm handheld users: please note that Gmail IMAP access is not currently compatible with VersaMail.
VersaMail is Palm’s default e-mail client.
But since I’m makulit, I still tried it on my Treo 650 using these settings, and this is the response I got:
Unable to connect to imap.gmail.com. Please verify your server name entry.
Aray! Sad naman. I hope they’ll fix it soon.
