Gmail emulates POP3/IMAP functionality, but, ultimately, does not work in the exact same way. Also, recently, Google has been restricting the use of non-Google made applications over security concerns. Google employs multiple layers of security for their accounts and letting in some random login attempt from and unknown ip at an unknown location is a big red flag. The most difficult part I found of this entire setup of the Gmail setup, was getting authenticated with Gmail. In the days where everyone ran a standard email server accessible with POP3/IMAP, this was perfection. This processor checks for emails in a specified folder, downloads them, processes the relavant content to an activity on a new or existing contact, then moves them to a new folder. Together, Gmail can filter and sort large volumes of email with excellent accuracy, then CiviCRM can import the relevant, and only the relevant emails into the contact records. Emails in Gmail can be very tagged and sorted using a vast number of criteria. Gmail has an awesome system of tags and filters. To view and control other account information, open your Google Account.CiviCRM has a great feature that allows it to check email boxes and add new contacts and activities based on the emails in that box.
