Accessing Gmail through Pine

Posted on 31st December 2006 by Taggy

I always loved pine ,for its jus too simple.

Today i figured it out how to read my emails in Gmail through pine

* start pine by the command pine

*M->S->C ( Main menu->Setup->Config)

*Set the inbox-path variable to {pop.gmail.com/pop3/ssl/user=username@gmail.com}inbox

*For sending mails

set the smtp-server variable to smtp.gmail.com/user=username@gmail.com

and now access inbox and you will have your gmail mails ready :)

PS : If someone tell me how to access other labels fom pine

I’m guessing.. but i think any label is available by {pop.gmail.com/pop3/ssl/user=username@gmail.com}
