Okay, I was just basically interested whether this problem was solved
or not.
I switched to fetchmail. It works! ;)
I use this setup (found on the web):

(setq mail-sources
 `((file :path "/var/spool/mail/username")
   (pop :server "justoneofmy.mailservers.org"
        :user "username"
        :password "password"
        :program "fetchmail -v --all");; -m '/usr/bin/formail -b>>/var/spool/
mail/username'")
        ))

I need no chronjob or fetchmails daemon, but can fetch all my accounts
(in my .fetchmailrc, gmail is just one of it)
as usuall pressing g. The data provided (:user :password :server) are
set, but not used at all.

So, basic problem not solved, but workaround works. Great!
Thanks for your suggestion!
