Using gmail, ahhhhhh

[silbeej]

So i entered my gmail info, and then it started downloading all my previous messages, so i could never delete them as fast as they came. With pop, i thought that messages that have already been download will not get downloaded again. How do i stop this, i have thousands of archived emails, and i don't want them all downloaded!

Thanks

Try turning off Pop from Gmail and delete the emails you have.

i think i got it
it stopped downloading a bunch after a while, not sure why it did it.

Does your Gmail account have IMAP yet? You should try that.
