iPhone + Gmail

Hi all,

for some reason recently my emails are not coming through on my computer when I have viewed them on my iPhone. I had 3 gmail accounts which I check when I get a new email but before I used to be able to view them again on my computer when I got home.
Anyone else had this? All mine are set POP3. I have checked Gmail settings so they are kept on the server so not sure what else is going on.

Thanks

No idea mine work fine, could it be the multiple connections thing ?IIRC gmail only allows 6 simultaneous connections at any one time

I use IMAP and it all works fine.

I tried IMAP before but it messed everything up so went back to POP3.

Everything was working fine so not sure whats going on now. Can you check your settings in Gmail?

Not sure how you couldn't get IMAP working correctly, it's been working for me across different platforms for many years.
