iPhone 1.1.3 Firmware Updates Gmail to IMAP Automatically

iPhone 1.1.3 Firmware Updates Gmail to IMAP AutomaticallyApparently the new 1.1.3 firmware update for the iPhone makes an automatic change in Gmail. For all users that setup Gmail by tapping the Gmail icon in mail setup will notice that IMAP is now enabled.

From Gmail:

“This means that actions you take on your iPhone will now sync with actions in your Gmail web interface (i.e. messages you read on your iPhone will show up as ‘Read’ in the web interface). This also means that messages you delete on your iPhone will be moved to the Trash folder in the Gmail web interface, and thus deleted after 30 days. Please exercise caution when deleting messages, as this behavior is markedly different from POP access.”
