| 728989 | 2008-12-14 07:05:00 | Setup instructions are a bit vague on the Gmail site. Does one use the 'Googlemail' option or the 'Email account' option? If the latter, the default POP setting is wrong. Do you have to enable IMAP on your Gmail account to use this option? Tried 'Googlemail' but it doesn't seem to work - even thought the POP port gets set to 995 like it should. |

| 728992 | 2008-12-14 09:09:00 | Isn't it just "Gmail" account?. Its pop, and nothing else needs configuring |

| 728993 | 2008-12-14 09:39:00 | The trick is in ensuring IMAP is switched on and changing the port numbers and the connection types - only one of which is the same as the setup for Outlook... | johcar (6283) | ||
