Can existing POP accounts be "pushed" in MM?

[MacManiac2]

OK it's a long post but this is what I know and what I did:

...

What I did is forward all incoming mail of those accounts to @me.com, that worked but I was receiving email on both accounts (@me and domain), so in webmail (of the POP account) I setup the discard all incoming mail option. That is something that my webmail have as an option, I don't know if this can be made in gmail or other POP accounts. Discarding incoming mail and forward option make me receive only emails on my @me acoount.

...

Mine does not have that option. I'm using godaddy.com as my webmail accnt because they host my site. Does anyone else use this and know how to set that up? Which are you using?

bemaniac,

I am scratching my head here.

You have the totally opposite problem of me.

I can't get any mail forwarded from GMAIL to my .Mac/MobileMe
account on my desktop (Leopard) to reply to email using my
POP address of choice.

Can you help me with that?

As far as your situation, if you are using GMAIL to forward your
mail to your iPhone, you simply follow these steps...

On the GMAIL webpage go to SETTINGS -> ACCOUNTS

Make your preferred POP address the DEFAULT

Go to MobileMe settings on iPhone. Turn off smtp.mac/me.com
and turn on (or add) smtp.gmail.com as the server.

You should now be able to reply using your default POP address.
