There are those moments in my life where I realize that I am a horrible, horrible nerd. Geek. Whatever. It would appear that when I wasn't looking (or maybe I was just imperceptive before), Google, in its infinite wisdom, granted Gmail the ability to function as a POP3 client.

This made my day. I was fooling around with the "Settings" tabs, really looking for nothing more than a new setting to set. Already, I've integrated two of my other accounts -- my bombdotcom.net account and another Gmail account -- into my primary Gmail account. It's fantastic. I receive that mail in my inbox and can send from any of my three email addresses.

Sadly, my bombdotcom.net address has pretty much become a spam account. Within hours (the time it took to download a massive backlog of messages I never checked), the messages in my spam folder increased by 48,000%. Somehow, I enjoyed that.

Seriously, I'm riding off some kind of endorphins because of this.
