CheckGmail is the Blackberry of the Linux world that relatively is still unknown to most Linux users. Basically, CheckGmail is a task bar Gmail notifier primarily developed by Owen Marshall that makes checking email a task that doesn’t even require for you to actually check your mail most of the time. A click within CheckGmail is all that is needed. If for some reason you are wondering, CheckGmail works with the best and biggest email service – Gmail. The great thing about Gmail is that it works with any POP3 server, allowing you to consolidate your email accounts. You can even check your email on Gmail hosted domains and run multiple instances of CheckGmail if you have multiple Gmail accounts. Once you learn about this great application you will have another reason to switch to Linux. If you are already are on the Linux platform, you will probably install it after reading this review.
