EDIT:
There used to be this Autoforwarding and free POP3 access in yahoo mail a while back available for Yahoo! delivers subscribers which I used to forward my email from yahoo to gmail.
Sadly, new yahoo ids don't get this feature and thus no POP3 and forwarding.
This feature supports web based email clients which have POP3. So, new free Yahoo ids are of no use, albeit I am using my old id successfully via either yahoo's autoforwarding or GMails POP3 fetcher (both are different services).

Access other e-mail accounts through Gmail!!

Heard of this new cool feature in Gmail where you can access your other e-mail accounts (yahoo,hotmail etc.) if they support POP3 ??

I got this feature today, right now this feature is enabled for some of the users. Oh man, this means more gmail users, tough competition for the others, I think someday e-mail will be actually called G-mail :p

This feature is for limited users as they ve said in the mail..
maybe it is for the long time users.
however they also said that this feature will be available to
more users in the near future.

Just check your settings and click on accounts tab, if you have a field named "Get mail from other accounts" then its available to you, else you have to wait for some more days, Google is still working on it.

I pity hotmail :D

People, this is no new Gmail feature. This feature has been there for months.
This feature is also available in Yahoo Mail.
----------------------------

If you people have Yahoo India email id, then you can enable free Pop3 Access for yahoo mail and access it thru Gmail.
Just go to option, and there you will find Pop3 and Forwarding.
Enable Pop3 thru that option.

BTW, luckypayal has a post count of 0 even after this post, lol!!

this is what I got on my new features link in google. I dont think it is an old feature. But note that they say something about limited users.


What's new on Gmail?

Just launched!

Get mail from other accounts
Now Gmail can check for the mail you receive at your other email accounts. You can retrieve your mail (new and old) from up to five other email accounts and have them all in Gmail. Then you can even create a customized 'From:' address, which lets you send messages from Gmail, but have them look like they were sent from another one of your email accounts. Please note that you can only retrieve mail from accounts that have POP3 access enabled. Learn more

This feature is currently only enabled for a limited number of users. We're working on making it more available soon. Look for it in the 'Accounts' tab in Settings.

Read this and I am sure that most of you would leave GMAil like me and this news is directly from google-
Am I receiving someone else's email?

Gmail doesn't recognize dots (.) as characters within a username. This way, you can add and remove dots to your username for desired address variations. messages sent to your.username@gmail.com and y.o.u.r.u.s.e.r.n.a.m.e@gmail.com are delivered to the same inbox, since the characters in the username are the same. Keep in mind that hyphens (-) and underscores (_) can't be used in a Gmail address. Also, usernames are case insensitive, so it doesn't matter if you enter upper case or lower case letters.
If you created your account with a dot in your username and you wish you hadn't, you can change your 'Reply-to address.' To change your reply-to address:
  1. Click 'Settings' at the top of any Gmail page.
  2. Enter your username@gmail.com without a dot in the 'Reply-to address' field.
  3. Click 'Save Changes.'
When you log in to Gmail, you need to enter any dots that were originally defined as part of your username. Note: Google Apps for Your Domain does recognize dots. If you'd like to receive mail with a dot (.) in your username, please ask your domain administrator to add the desired username as a nickname in your user account.
