iOS Check email from iPhone app?

[mbmosher]

Hello,

I am very new to iPhone programming. I was just wonder if it was possible to write part of an app that would check a gmail account for new messages, and get their content based on the subject. I know you can send emails from apps, but can't find anything conclusive about receiving emails within an app (not the mail app).

Thanks!

You can't query the mail.app, so you'd have to write your own gmail client.
