Gmail to Discontinue POP3 Mail Fetching from Other Accounts
Originally Published 6 days ago — by theregister.com
Google is discontinuing the POP3 mail fetching feature in Gmail, which allowed users to collect emails from other accounts, citing security concerns and the need to phase out outdated protocols. Users can still access their accounts via mobile apps, but the web-based retrieval will no longer be supported, prompting some to switch to local email clients like Thunderbird.
