Read the sticky message about the limitations of Gmail pop3 checking within Plus! at the very top in the "help & support" forum (searching first would have relvealed it ;)): "MsgPlus! 3.50 Pop3 Gmail Limitations"...

I just try it with my gmail, auto check delay means what and it seems much lousier than gmail notifier.

Is the account 1 will be use if only I login to my msn with my gmail?

"The server couldn't be contacted" can be due to Gmail server temporarily unreachable, don't get too alarmed about it when it happens when you click on "test", just try again later.

It is the interval (in minutes) when Plus! requests a total of unread mail from the accounts you've set. If new mail has arrived, Plus! will show a popup.

It is certainly not lousier. Messenger Plus! sticks to the POP3 protocol, but Gmail doesn't. Plus! can't do anything about that. And it would be inpractical to implement a workaround and other special things especially for each and every POP3 server which doesn't stick to the protocol...

You might wanna read: "MsgPlus! 3.50 Pop3 Gmail Limitations"

Gmail's notifier is especially made for Gmail, nothing more.

No it can't :p   -   The specified thread does not exist.
That thread was the first one, it has been replaced with "MsgPlus! 3.50 Pop3 Gmail Limitations" ;)
