Right, so just trying to get used to this OSX Lion having always only ever used windows. But I do use iPhones.

So my first query is how do u get 'Mail' app on the Mac to behave like Mail on the iPhone with gmail? I only want to download and show the last 50 messages. When I first started it up it started downloading many thousands of emails!!:eek: So for now I have just deleted the account until I know how to set it up properly.

Or should I just use a browser?
 
Thx for replying - OK I have checked and its already set at the lowest setting of 1000. Im not sure that setting works as I'm sure Mail was trying to download considerably more then 1000. Shame it does not work the same as the iPhone mail app.
Does anyone use Sparrow or Mailplane?
