...In a massive oversight, there's no pre-configured option for Gmail, and there doesn't seem to be a way to add an email domain not on the list, such .Mac for Apple or any other personalized domain...
I've been saying the same thing for ever now...
it's like at&t is completely taking an back step with every device they release. every phone has more at&t apps but is less customizable and they do there best to block you from adding anything to the phone. at&t used to represent innovation but now they are worse than verizon with restricting what customers do with their phones.

Probably because you can download the gmail mobile application to any java based phone such as the propel. Just go to m.google.com on the phone and it takes 20 seconds to d/l and install it. They probably don't want to do more work when there is already a solution available from the email provider.

but at&t hacks the java profile that allows you to use that app. you can download it but you have to hit 'accept' every time the page loads something. it's been that way for awhile... it's that way on every phone... they use mobile email and other providers have gmail or a place to input pop/imap settings. at&t won't update teh app.
