RE: pop3 email checker
There is no way. GMail does not provide you with a POP access, so you can't use it in Plus, or Outlook, Thunderbird, etc.

RE: pop3 email checker
What KeyStorm does not seem to know, however, is that there are programs you can use to make it look like a POP account to Messenger Plus!, so you can check it.

One of these programs is POP Goes the Gmail. You can find it at http://jaybe.org/info.htm, where quite a lot of information can be found, and there's also a forum for questions.

Other sites are http://www.marklyon.org/gmail/ and http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=169789.

you could use gtay. this is a program this will check your account every x(you chose) mins. and alert you if u have any mail.
