If you configured your iPhone to check GMail using the big GMail icon, there is a little surprise for you with the latest update. Apple decided that you needed to be checking your GMail account with IMAP rather than POP3, so they’ve gone ahead and switched you. Don’t worry, IMAP really is better than POP3, just take note that messages you delete will be moved to the trash on Google’s servers. That means after 30 days they’ll be wiped.
