I easily found a sample program to send an email to Gmail in LabVIEW and it works well. But I want to read emails from Gmail in LabVIEW as well. Is this possible? Thanks

Well, not so much a duplicate post, since that post was asking about reading attachments. This is asking about getting emails from Gmail.
To OP: Your question is not clear. Are you trying to download emails from your Gmail account? If so, you first need to configure Gmail to turn on the POP service. I don't think this is enabled by default. The Gmail help documents tell you how to do this. Once you've done that, you can just use a POP client. You can start by trying the one posted in this thread, but be aware, that sometimes servers have their own little "quirks", as alluded to in that thread.

I assume you're referring to the VIs from this KB article: POP Mail VIs? Yeah, those won't work since Gmail requires SSL. You could try to use stunnel, or you can see if there's an alternative way to do it, such as using .NET if you're on Windows. I have seen examples on the internet that used .NET to create a POP3 client.
