Check POP Mail in Gmail Faster

I do much of my e-mail management from within Gmail.  One of the few annoyances I have found is having somebody tell me they just sent me something, and I have to click through several links to check manually that specific POP account.  By default Gmail uses a common timing algorithm to fetch your POP account mail, but now you can ask them to do it at the click of a button.

Thanks to a new Gmail Labs feature, you can now use the Refresh link to check all your POP mail accounts too.  Just click on the Google Labs green beaker at the top of Gmail, and enable Refresh POP accounts.

Now, if you use Gmail to manage both your Gmail account and your POP mail accounts, you can check all your mail accounts quicker. (via Lifehacker)
