[Users] GMail: Surely, I'm not the only one who didn't know this... :)

Setting up email on my new Android phone and was about to send a bug
report to GMail when I found the following:

>How do I download mail to multiple POP clients?
>
>To access your messages with multiple POP clients, use recent mode in

>than only to the first client to access new mail. Recent mode fetches

>ensure that the Leave messages on server option in your POP client is

All other pop servers I've used can handle multiple clients...  

Hope this helps someone...  although I still haven't seen clear evidence
this actually works...  still testing.
