David,
Thank you for those steps.
That seemed to work.
My bad was I didn't check the boxes that needed to be checked.
The last time I set up an email account in gmail using windows mail was over
a year ago so I forgot some important details.
Again,
Thank you.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] gmail in windows mail
Hi,
I have been trying to set up my gmail account in windows mail and I can’t
seem to get it to work.
I enabled pop in the gmail site, I entered the server info such as 110 or
25, then tried 995 etc, but nothing seems to work. Can someone provide
information on how to configure windows mail with a gmail account?
Thanks.
