Can Gmail be accessed through Outlook Express 6 (On Windows XP)?? If so, how?? I haven't used any email clients before with any of the email providers. Please help me configure Outlook Express for Gmail if it is possible.

to start off, you have to enable the pop feature,
go to settings>pop & forwarding and enable it

now you have to setup your client go to *gmail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=13276

or u can use the auto configuration tool
get it here *toolbar.google.com/gmail-helper/GmailConfig.exe

to get faster response on gmail problems, post on this sticky:*www.thinkdigit.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6367

why ppl here just copy the posts, repeating the same information??
