Can I use POPcon to download email from Gmail accounts?

Yes, POPcon can download email from POP3-SSL accounts since version 3.00. Since Gmail allows outside access to their users mailboxes via this protocol, you can use POPcon to download messages from your Gmail account and have them included in your standard Exchange Inbox.

This is the POPcon POP3/IMAP server configuration you can use to access your Gmail accounts:

 

As you can see, the server type needs to be set to "POP3-SSL", the IP portnumber consequently is 995 and the server name is pop.gmail.com. Use your normal Gmail username and password to access your mailbox this way. Gmail mailboxes are normally single-user mailboxes, so you should set POPcon to forward the email to a single SMTP-email address.
