That requires giving gmail your pop password which not everyone likes. |

In this setup you could use your d.g.o procmail to forward mail to |
| 30 |
something like 'google-hosted.mail.gentoo.org' which would stuff it in |
| 31 |
gentoo.org gmail account and you gentoo.org account could be your |
| 32 |
d.g.o password, or something different. |
