Any of the things gmail offers which are the least bit interesting involve things that happen if you use their interface. But besides getting one's email there, two ways exist to avoid the problem with their nonstandard features. One would be to use IMAP instead of POP. The other is to have your gmail collected by another of your providers. Actually I guess there are three, because I think you can have gmail forward your mail, as well. -- Dwight A.
