eM Client is somewhat similar to Outlook and can be setup very easily to access your Gmail account. Like a POP email client, it will download and store the unread messages in your google account and then delete them off the Google server. This means if your account gets hacked

(#1, only the most recent messages since the last check (mine is set to check every 10 minutes) would be there. So almost all of your messages are safely stored on your own computer.

(#2, you have all of your settings to set your account back up again.

You can also manage your Google calender with program.It also has a built in Instant Messaging service which will allow you to communicate instantly with other users of Jabber Instant Messaging network as well as many other Jabber compatible networks such as Google Talk, ICQ, AIM etc....

There is a free version, limited to two email accounts (which is fine for me because I only have one Gmail account), and a pro version for $50 which can handle an unlimited amount of email addresses.

The free version doesn't have any other restrictions other than it's limited to two email accounts.

Anyway... I find it handy. Thought some of you might too. The home page is here: http://www.emclient.com.

On another note: The Open Source email client Thunderbird can be used with Gmail too. See:

For anyone who hasn't heard of Thunderbird, it can be downloaded for free from here:
