Here are the GMail settings details for outlook express that I implemented around a week ago, and that are still working for me this side: E-Mail Accounts tab
Your Name: (optional) E-mail address: (your Gmail address, including '@gmail.com') User Name: (your Gmail address, including '@gmail.com') Password: (your Gmail password) Remember password: (optional) Log on using Secure Password Authentication: disabled Incoming mail server2 (POP3): pop.gmail.com Outgoing mail server (SMTP): smtp.gmail.com Outgoing Server tab My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication: enabled Use same settings as my incoming mail server: enabled Advanced tab Incoming server (POP3): 995 This server requires a secure connection (SSL) enabled Outgoing server (SMTP): 465 or 25 This server requires a secure connection (SSL) enabled Server Timeouts (Greater than 1 minute, we recommend 5) Leave a copy of messages on the server disabled 1.POP: POP (Post office protocol) is a one-way download of your messages that allows you to access your mail with a mail program like Outlook Express or Apple Mail. POP only offers one-way communication, which means that actions you take in the mail program (like marking a message as read) wont be synced to Gmail. 2.mail server: A mail server is a machine that sends and receives emails. Think of a mail server as a mailman who makes sure messages go to the right place. updated 01/24/2011 Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA '...fate had broken his body, but not his spirit...' ----- Original Message --------------- Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] Gmail Anyone Having Problems From: "Mike & Barbara In Arcadia" <[email protected]> Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2011 05:57:49 -0700 To: <[email protected]> >Hi Ann Marie & Jacob, > >Thank you very much for your replies & verifying that everything is fine >with your Gmail accounts.
