I still use pine :)
I use gmail so that I get good operation cross device but it's heavily filtered so I only see a fraction of total email on my phone, but I can search everything.
I then pop everything off using fetchmail and process all emails down to zero once or twice a day using pine (either in Terminal or irssi connectbot on my xperia).
This suits me not only from a day to day perspective but also because if gmail locks me out for some reason I can easily route around it and still have a full
backup of my email history.
- keithpeter 12y agoThanks very much for this post. I'm doing a full pop3 download of around 3 years of mostly email newsletters from my gmail account now. In order to enable pop3 though, I had to change a default gmail security setting. Have you had any issues at all since leaving pop enabled? Using Kmail, I'm having to fetch each month's worth of email at a time. Can't find a setting anywhere so assume that is a Google thing.
