GMAIL wants to be your email program

Seems GMail came out with a new feature

Get mail from other accounts
Now Gmail can check for the mail you receive at your other email accounts. You can retrieve your mail (new and old) from up to five other email accounts and have them all in Gmail. Then you can even create a customized 'From:' address, which lets you send messages from Gmail, but have them look like they were sent from another one of your email accounts. Please note that you can only retrieve mail from accounts that have POP3 access enabled.

Re: GMAIL wants to be your email program

I don't wear a tin foil hat - so this may be of use to me. When I go away for short breaks I still need my e-mail, normally that involves using 4-5 different webmail logins, so this could be an option. Especially if it has the option to not download from server, or mark the email as read/downloaded.
