Google's GMail will stop working through POP occasionally. Yesterday it would not work for 4 hours with Thunderbird, but worked fine through their web interface. I use my ISP mail for time critical stuff, and GMail for other stuff. I wouldn't bank on GMail for reliability when it comes to POP. In the last year I have seen over 20 'glitches', where it would not work through my e-mail client, but worked fine through their provided interface. - James W.
