Google Mail on multiple devices with pop3/imap

Quick tip: instead of using username@gmail.com , use recent:username@gmail.com and you 'll be able to get all your messages on more than one device. Google Mail seems to 'mark' messages as read when you download them with POP3 (as the standard says it should), but does it in a funny way, so that you cannot download your messages with another computer/pda/etc later on (because they are marked as read, isn't it?). Well, on courier and other pop3/imap servers I was able to do it with no problems from 10 devices if i wanted to. So you can use recent:username@gmail.com and it'll work.
