The picture has nothing to do with the Post here, but since all I do is Photography now a days here is the most recent upload.

Anyways to the point of this post, is the affliction that is Windows Mobile and Imap email setup via Gmail.

When trying to add a gmail account to a Windows Mobile device, upon entering that it is a gmail address, the windows device will automatically set up most of the connections for you. Which is a major pain if you want to use the imap feature of gmail. But who doesn't? Basically you will have to trick the Windows device into not automatically configuring the settings for the email. Other then rambling on about it.. I will just off the link, because we all know that google rules the world.
