Gmail has became one of the most popular Web mail applications.

It provides POP3 access, so any user can retrieve messages from their Gmail mailbox into another computer. However, POP3 access is not always possible, and some cases it may be inconvenient.

This package provides an alternative solution to retrieve messages from a Gmail mailbox for read only purposes. It accesses most of the details of the messages in a mailbox using XML Atom feed that Gmail provides via HTTP.
