Is there any way that you can get your gmail so when i connects it doesnt load your full mailbox directly from gmail? Also when i delete a message it will delete on www.gmail.com, but i want it to remain in my inbox online, kind like the blackberry how it gives you the option to delete just on handheld or both.

Thank you

Not sure about the deleting thing, But I know you have the option to load up to 50 emails on your phone.. 10,20,50

archive your old emails, Thats what i do so it only shows new emails, the only reason it deletes it on your inbox is because gmail uses imap on the iphone, if you could set it to use POP3 then it would just delete em on the phone

Is there a post on how to set the gmail to POP3...Sorry but im new to the whole iphone world so i dont know how this works.

not sure, search on the web ive never needed to do it, you could add the gmail account manually by doing other

When you set up teh Gmail account do NOT choose Gmail from teh account set up page. Choose "other". When you input th egmail address the iphone will ask if you want IMAP or POP so choose POP. Input incoming mail server as "pop.gmail.com" and smtp server as "smtp.gmail.com" . The account should then set up properly. It does for me anyway since I do use gmail pop as I like to keep messages on one computer and delete them off my iphone. I learned this the hard way when I deleted stuff off one machine I lost everything whin I didnt know gmail has set itself to IMAP.
