I read my GMail email in a desktop client and on my tablet and have no problem. Why did you have to switch away from gnus?

At the time I was heavily using local groups (folders) to organise the emails, and of course those weren't living on Google's servers—and if I were going to leave them up on the server, I might as well choose to organise them differently, since I wouldn't have gnus filtering them for me.

And I think there was some trouble with IMAP at the time too, so the path of least resistance was to just use the web client on my desktop. But, as I noted, I'm thinking of going back.
