In case you don't already know, I thought you folks might be interested to hear that Google Apps mail now has the POP3 mail fetcher feature like Gmail.

I'm wasn't sure how new this is because I rarely go into my settings page, but I did a quick blog search and found this post from March which also claims you can now fetch mail from Gmail accounts:

So it looks like it's been around for at least two months but could easily have gone unnoticed. I really wish Google would document feature updates like this somewhere!

I thought blogs like Google Blogoscoped do that.

But it would be good to have an official list so that it's not left up to people to just stumble across them. At least give us version numbers of apps like in Google Spreadsheets and Google Talk.

Agreed. There doesn't seem to very good customer notifications for all the Apps service. It's important to let them know separately, because a) it's a different audience, and b) features are often slightly delayed.
