About POP

POP, or Post Office Protocol, lets you download messages from Gmail's servers onto your computer so you can access your mail with a program like Microsoft Outlook Express or Thunderbird, even when you aren't connected to the Internet.
POP access is free for all Gmail users. However, if you're thinking about using POP - consider IMAP, which offers all the benefits listed above plus two-way communication between your web Gmail and your email client.
