seems you use IMAP to read gmail. I usually read my gmail mail through
my web browser, which is not a problem from opera/firefox in linux.
However, I can't do the same from plan9. Neither abaco, nor charon
work. Is this so for everyone or just for me? Thanks.
GMail's normal web interface is a heavy web application relying on AJAX.
That is unavailable on Plan 9's browsers from A (asynchronous), to J
(JavaScript), to X (XML). You may want to try to disable the advanced
interface, go with the basic HTML-only one, and then try it on Plan 9's
browsers. Even though, the login page alone could pose serious problems
with a basic unadorned browser like abaco.
People here seem to use IMAP to do their bidding but POP (POPS actually)
can be just fine and very simple if you only want to read your email and
you don't receive huge attachments that will clog your line if you even try
to read the text part of an a new email.

FUN FACT: GMail works well with links/elinks.
