web access over the phone is a bit difficult and should be avoided if possible I would say as going through messages is very laborious.
It may be possible for google mail to work using pop3 if your friend's mobile will allow him to change the port used for pop mail as I think Google does not use the standard port 110 another possibility is www.hotpop.com which gives you a pop email account. I haven't looked at this one recently however.

Well Fastmail's going to be popular today <grins>. Your friend can sign up to a free guest account to the above service whereby he gets 10 MB of mailbox storage and 40 MB of bandwidth usage, i.e. the amount of e-mails you send and receive, including attachments, per month. If he likes the service and he wants a bit more mailbox storage/bandwidth usage, he can pay a one off fee for $14.95, and become a member. When he's a member, he'll get 16 MB of mailbox storage and 80 MB of bandwidth usage per month. For more information and to sign up, visit http://www.fastmail.fm. By the way, Fastmail should work on his mobile phone; at least the web interface does. Hope that helps.
