Using KMail and Gmail together? Some nice improvements are ahead.

KDE's PIM stack has received improved Gmail integration via a native Gmail Resource for Akonadi. This work will mostly benefit KMail users as a superior option to using standard IMAP. This improved Gmail support includes a flattened folder hierarchy, improved label handling, OAuth2 authentication support, simpler configuration, push notifications for all folders, and other benefits.

More information on this KDE Gmail work can be found via Daniel Vrátil's blog.
