Gnus nnimap works well. This configuration will be an online IMAP
client without local caching:
(setq gnus-select-method
'(nnimap "imap.gmail.com")
message-send-mail-function 'message-smtpmail-send-it
smtpmail-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com"
smtpmail-stream-type 'ssl
smtpmail-smtp-service 465)
Then try M-x gnus to read mail.
If you want something like a Gmail-style "conversation view," you might
also add:
(setq gnus-thread-sort-functions
'(gnus-thread-sort-by-most-recent-date)
gnus-sort-gathered-threads-function 'gnus-thread-sort-by-number)
(add-hook 'gnus-summary-prepared-hook 'gnus-summary-hide-all-threads)
This will start with threads ordered in the buffer with most recent on
top, and collapsed until you begin to read them.
Read the [Gmail]/All Mail group rather than the INBOX to see your
replies too.
