More Windows Shareware

The Mac people may have gotten a head start on handcrafted iPod shareware, but the Windows crew is beginning to develop programs of their own to extend the iPod’s abilities. Like the Mac software described earlier, all of these programs are available on the “Missing CD” page at http://www.missingmanuals.com.

The program works with POP and IMAP email accounts and, with a little bit of tweaking, can also handle Gmail mail.

    No matter which email program you use, from Outlook Express to Eudora, you just need to know your account’s settings–like user name, password, and mail server name–to set up K-Pod for mobile mail. The program copies only the messages, so you’ll still have them waiting for you the next time you check mail on your PC.
