has anyone tried accessing their gmail acct using openwave? i use mail2wap and input in my gmail acct plus passwd - it gives me a http error. is the gmail just not compatible w/WAP 2.0?

If all else fails, try gmailwireless.com , it certainly works well for me.

I think you have to sing up at gmailwireless.com on the comp, then you can get it on wap.

i have the 9800 & the wap for gmail kinda stinks inmo. Albeit better than just going to the gmail url there's just way too much stuff to scroll past just the sign in. Also, you have to sign out each time having to go thru the pain of scrolling down for ages to get the the sign in button.
WACK!

Are there privacy issues when you use a service like this to read your e-mail? An unscrupulous server admin could see EVERYTHING passing through the server. Do they see your password too? Just curious.

Like the link in your sig, flexia.

It is great! I switched from my ISP e-mail because the interface was sooooo much better than using mail2wap.

I've been using gmail-mobile for a while now and it's done me well. The only problem is that when I updated it I could no longer read my messages, only view the Inbox.

The official Gmail Mobile didn't work on my old phone (VGA1000) but now that I've got a newer phone it works fine. A lot cleaner looking than the third party stuff.
