HowTo: Read your Gmail inbox via ATOM feed

Colin Dunstan · 10-07-2004, 05:01 AM

All over the place it was reported that Gmail now supports ATOM feed, a nice way to be alerted via an ATOM capable reader client of incoming mail.

Unfortunately, the link is only shown to a few selected accounts.

Here is how everyone can access his or her Gmail account via ATOM feed:

Use this link: https://gmail.google.com/gmail/feed/atom

You'll be prompted for your Gmail user name and password. That's all!

If you don't have your own Gmail account yet, make sure to visit Alex's thread for an invite!

Btw, does anyone know any Palm- or PPC-based readers supporting ATOM?

Thanks Morpheus!

If your reader doesn't support client authentication, you can also use the following method:

https://username:password@gmail.goog...mail/feed/atom

where username is your Gmail username and password your Gmail password.
