That sounds like more or less what I was looking for, as I use GMail for
things like web page update notifications which I want to be able to look at
but not really to download...
Unfortunately I can't see any way to enable IMAP in my existing copy of
MPro 8, or to add an additional 'mailbox' accessed via IMAP while all the
existing mail is downloaded by AntiSpam using POP - a quick look at the
Internet suggests that you might have to configure it when originally
installing the Messenger suite by running !RemoteNB, or that our version
only has the Messenger Offline Database available.
