Any way to read my ISP web based Flash email
I like to access my email via the web client, because I typically access it from several different PC's, therefore, using Outlook, or Outlook Express would be counter productive to doing it this way, unless I programmed it to leave the files on the server.
Anyway, my ISP, Charter Communications, several months ago, re-wrote the entire web interface and now, it's a flash based webpage, and it really sucks, but, I would none the less, love to be able to access my email from the iPad.
I am jailbroken, but, still don't know of any way to do this. I have looked for POP3 clients, but, as far as I know, I don't remember finding anything.
Can anyone point me in the direction that would allow me to do this? Free is better, if not free, the less it is of course, the better it is.
Thanks so much.
Use gmail to do all the lifting for you
Another suggestion is to setup Gmail to grab the other mailboxes for you. Then, you have the simplicity of a single inbox on your phone or desktop system(s). In the Gmail settings section, there's an 'Accounts and import' sub-section where you can enter in email hosts that you want to grab from. I think the limit is five. This has the added advantage of using Gmail's anti-spam capabilities, and usually, only good stuff ends up in your inbox. I use this approach for email addresses that I have to monitor, but that I don't want to see individual mailbox objects either on my desktop or hand-held devices. Only caveat is that Gmail only polls the email sources every 20 minutes. If Gmail is actually open on a real desktop, the mailboxes are polled each time you click 'refresh', but in the hand-held world, you'll probably have to wait the full 20 minutes. At least this is the way it worked on my Blackberry. I'm only a recent Iphone convert and have noted there are a few differences between what at first glance appear to be identical services between the Blackberry vs. Iphone options. W.
