> Do GMail have documentation on how the rest of us can do this
You just go to the settings and you can add POP3 credentials. Google will poll
for new messages every so often and transfer them. Unable to find docs, but it's
not a hard feature to use.

Realistically, it's the same risk as giving the user's password to any email
client, right? Unless you implement a strict ASP policy for imap/pop/smtp, the
user is going to be giving out their passwords to email clients anyway.
