[X4U] Can Apple's Mail pick up GMail?

[Crandon David]

Yes, I want to be able to pick up some email from my non-smart cell  
phone also. My cell will work with Gmail, but not my usual roadrunner  
server. So I want to be able to pick up my Gmail from home as well  
without having to go to Googles site.

Going to a website to pick up my email (like hotmail, yahoo, etc.)  
just seems very redundant to me.

Thanks.

David
