gPopper Released


Recommended Posts

Apologies if someone already posted this, I did search & couldn't find it.

Anyways

gPopper is a FREE Gmail utility which acts as POP3/SMTP Gmail server allowing you to use programs such as Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, and Thunderbird to send and receive Gmail.

Formerly Pop Goes the GMail (PGtGM), gPopper has continued where PGtGM has left off.

Just about any email client that supports access to POP3 email accounts can be configured to work with gPopper.

NOTE: The .Net framework is required to run gPopper

Thanks for posting about this. Cool to hear about it, although I'm kind of cautious when it comes to stuff like this because Google has posted themselves about the interoperability of 3rd-party software and how they want to implement their own solutions (i.e. gMail Notifier) when the time comes. Can't wait for official POP3 from gMail.

Understandably, people are enthused!!

I understand what you're saying, but until google actually do include POP3 support, those of us who want that functionality have no choice but to rely on applications like gPopper to do the job.

Hmm, I'd never had any problems with pgtgm so I gave this a try. The actual app has no problems checking for mail, I can send mail from Outlook Express but receiving is weird. When receiving on the Gmail account, it detects that I have mail, but fails to retrieve it :/

,Sep 12 2004, 22:24] :huh: didnt you make this?

I made the original application, which was released under GPL. Google changed the login code however, and I didn't have time to fix it, so I let someone else continue the work.

I'm just making sure the coder is following the terms of the GPL license by making source code available.

hey didnt you get a job from google? what do you do??

Where can I download the source code? I can't seem to find a link on the site.

Thanks

Taken from the author's forum.

For those of you that would like a copy of the sourcecode, please send an email to [email protected].  A copy of the sourcecode will be emailed to you within 48 hours.  I will automate this if requests get out of hand.

At the moment this program is very buggy, I hope the dev can find time and courage to work it out and make it as great as PGTGM.

Gmail may be having problems or may have changed something.  Try again in a few minutes.

Anyone get this error, gPopper works correctly on one network, but not on the wireless network in the same uni, and not on a corporate network. I run XP SP2 and .Net 1.1 SP. Connecting via thunderbird worked fine when I init set it up, over 60 msg dl. Now I get the above error no matter what proxy/firewall settings I use. Even throughing in authenticated settings. Is it possible that gPopper does not like proxies that require authentication.

Gmail itself and the firefox gmail notifier work perfectly. They even bypass the authentication of the proxy and seem to work direct. But gPopper doesn't.

    • Hello, While ~104 GB of space may seem generous (at least compared to other e-readers which have 8-32GB), I feel at this price point the device should have a Micro SDXC card slot for expansion, particularly if it allows audio books to be installed and played. I hope to see more reviews of 6" phone-sized e-readers on Neowin in the future. It will be interesting to see how they compare. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 by Razvan Serea Run programs in a sandbox to prevent malware from making permanent changes to your PC. Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later. Sandboxie is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It is being developed by David Xanatos since it became open source, before that it was developed by Sophos (which acquired it from Invincea, which acquired it earlier from the original author Ronen Tzur). It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie is available in two flavors Plus and Classic. Both have the same core components, this means they have the same level of security and compatibility. What's different is the user interface the Plus build has a modern Qt based UI which supports all new features that have been added since the project went open source. The Classic build has the old no longer developed MFC based UI, hence it lacks support for modern features, these features can however still be used when manually configured in the Sandboxie.ini. Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 release notes: Added added DisableCustomTitleOpt=[process,][y|n] to allow [#] sandboxie title markers on custom-titlebar windows (Delphi VCL, Qt, Electron) that were previously skipped to prevent DWM repaint CPU loops #5387 Changed updated bundled ImDisk driver to 3.0.2 #5419 Fixed fix Suppress logs for expected non-user SIDs #5422 SbieSvc.exe: SBIE2218/2219 error when run program as administrator #5417 fixed explorer.exe crashes in Application Compartment when Huorong Security is installed #5423 Download: Sandboxie Plus (64-bit) | 23.5 MB (Open Source) Download: Sandboxie Classic (64-bit) | 3.0 MB Links: Sandboxie Website | GitHub | ARM64 | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • I still use HexChat! Not really as ancient as the 1994 AutoCAD above my post, but I have never found anything better to replace it. Yes we still operate an IRC server https://www.neowin.net/irc/ 😛 
    • At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.
