I did the same but its not fetching mail. WHat am I doing wrong ?

You're doing pop.google.com.. try doing pop.gmail.com

and make sure that the username has username@[B][U]gmail.com[/U][/B]

It has always worked for me.. never had any problem

Silly me

Thanks all working now

No probs.. btw.. is it better to download the Free DVD edition of Mandriva.. or should I install KDE from the already installed version?

I heard you can use imap with gmail in kmail. why don't you try it ???

offtopic: what is the way kmail stores email ? an SQL database file ???

KMail stores all mails as plain text in ~/Mail.The permissions of this directory should be set to drwx------ so only you can view the contents.

@metal.. i've IMAP enabled.. and i've used KMail for that too.. you just have to replace pop.gmail.com with imap.gmail.com.. then all the settings are the same.. no modifications.

Does KMail support stuff like sync with gmail labels, etc ?

yeah..everything..
