@nelson@tech.lgbt no, I don't think so. There seems to be IMAP support in the mobile Gmail client? But it doesn't sound like it pulls to the real Gmail store

@nelson@tech.lgbt @jmason@mastodon.ie They support IMAP. "Pulling" is just fetch and then delete from server. Most interactive clients don't do it, but things like fetchmail support it nicely.

@nelson@tech.lgbt @jmason@mastodon.ie Oh, having Gmail do the pulling. No, they don't support that on their side, but you can use fetchmail to pull from a remote and store in Gmail just as easily as the other way around.

@nelson@tech.lgbt @jmason@mastodon.ie after the nightmare that was fetchmail vs. Gmail OAUTH 2.0, I gave up and just forward gmail to my ISP account. But thankfully gmail was never anything other than a place to trap notifications from FB and that sort of crap I don't care about, anyway. https://billauer.co.il/blog/2022/06/fetchmail-gmail-lsa-oauth2/
