Thanks for the link. I hadn't browsed HowardForums before.

I assume you're referring to this HowardForums post? In any case, HTTPS does NOT work for me. Neither does the mail client with either port 465 or 587 (set according to this Gmail Help Page).

I'd really like to get at least the local mail ap working with Gmail. Basic browsing is great, but getting new mail notification & mail access is a very close second for me. I've found the Maemo tsocks gargage page & the tsocks homepage, but a lot of it is over my head. is there a simple how-to for Maemo anywhere? There's this Maemo forum thread, but it seems to be just targeted for the browser.
