I use versamail on my Treo 650 and don't have any issues...

I'm guessing that you just need to set it up like a POP account and make sure the user/pass is correct. For the incoming/outgoing URL just enter gmail.com.

Change to outgoing mail server to what ever your isp uses.........otherwise it will be blocked as spam..

Yep.....it's now a standard way of reducing spam.....as most spam is sent/relayed from one ISP through another company or isp's mail server.....it will also cust down on congestion......

I'm not sure but your ISP might not block foreign IP address's from sending via their mail servers......you'll just have to test 1 by 1

Do you dialup using the palm? If so then use the mobile ph companies mail server......this way you don't have to change it all the time....
