Gmail launches MailFetcher

From Technocrunch:

Google quietly added a small feature to Gmail this week called Mail Fetcher. When that feature launched, Gmail became perfect.

Mail Fetcher allows users to access non-Gmail email accounts from within the Gmail interface. If you have a Yahoo email account, and a work email account, etc., you can simply access that email from within Gmail, using POP settings. Gmail will now work in a very similar way as Outlook does on the PC desktop.

I’ve been using Roundcube for all my personal email accounts (I have a fair few) up until recently, but this new google feature has made me think twice. Will play with it today and see if there is enough motivation to switch it all over.
