Overview

• Gmail will remove the desktop "Check mail from other accounts" option that pulled messages via POP.
• Third-party accounts will no longer get Gmailify enhancements such as spam filtering, inbox categories, improved mobile notifications, or advanced search operators.
• Emails imported before the cutoff will remain in Gmail and will not be deleted.
• Google says the change provides more secure, up-to-date access methods and confirms ongoing support for IMAP.
