When I set up my gmail account on another computer using Apple Mail 3.3
I can download mail. But I can't get it to work in PowerMail.

Winston,
this sounds very strange, because for those of us using gmail it works.

so my guess is there's something wrong with your setting in PM.
I'd suggest you to delete the account in PM and also to delete any entry
related to that account in your keychain.
When you did that, recreate the account and double check, while entering
the password.
good luck and all the best

I second that opinion. I must also mention that I do use the whole email
address as ID.
I have these settings:
User account ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Incoming mail server: pop.gmail.com
Checked "Save password" (password)
Checked "Use secure connection (SSL/TLS)"
UnChecked "Use port" 995 <---- Note this
Checked "On a dedicated secure port"
So try and uncheck the port specification. Perhaps the Gmail servers
need to negotiate on the port(s) used?

Just received such a piece of e-mail from Sophos, of all people. For
the record, Thunderbird (PC) had no problems with it although it did
initially block the images for security reasons. I unblocked them and
the full message displayed.
PowerMail, on the other hand, gave me the blank page page with an HTML
attachment. Most of my other HTML messages display automatically as I
have the reader enabled with the HTML preference AND the autodownload of
pictures both enabled. Funny thing is, some e-mail, notably Apple's,
won't show me the images unless I then manually download them.
Conclusion: the behaviour is definitely not universal and is specific
to both the message and the e-mail client. We need some work done here, guys.

I can reproduce the problem with this HTML message on 10.4.11, but not
on 10.5.4.
Anyone with a reproducible case on 10.5.4?
