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.

    • Finally we can whole-heartedly recommend the AMD 9070 GRE thanks to this discount by Sayan Sen Earlier this month at Computex 2026 AMD released the Radeon RX 9070 GRE for a global audience. We reviewed the GPU and it scored 8 out of 10 for gaming and 7.5 out of 10 for productivity including things like AI performance. The card launched for $550 which we thought was a bit on the higher side, though currently you are getting the chance to get the Gigabyte Gaming variant of the GPU for just $500 thanks to this discount (purchase link under the specs table down below). As such we can finally whole-heartedly recommend this GPU. The card employs Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system which combines multiple design elements such as alternate-spinning Hawk fans, a vapor chamber, and composite heat pipes to manage heat dissipation. The Server-grade Thermal conductive gel further helps in this department. The inclusion of a semi-passive cooling mode allows the fans to remain inactive under low workloads, which allows for reduced noise operation during lighter usage. There is dual BIOS switch that allows toggling between performance and silent modes. The technical specs of the Gigabyte Gaming RX 9070 GRE OC is given in the table below: Get it at the link below: GIGABYTE Gaming Radeon RX 9070 GRE 12GB GDDR6 GPU (GV-R907GREGAMING OC-12GD): $549.99 + $50 discount with promo code in mail => $499.99 (Sold and Shipped by Newegg US) This Newegg deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified. This is a first-party seller link (at the time of article publishing); ensure that you also purchase from a first-party seller link only.
