What in the world was "Gmailify"? Was it different from adding third-party accounts via POP? (Was it maybe just IMAP for third-party accounts?)


It was IMAP sync between the Gmail server and the Outlook/Yahoo/etc server.

Then you have a regular Gmail account and get notifications, spam checking, mobile push notifications etc.


Thank you! I never knew this was a thing.

So it was only available for a small list of services?


I think it was adding third party accounts via POP but automated for large well known third parties.
