Thank you guys for the suggestions. Since this problem doesn't seem unusual
to you guys, I'm sure together we can fix it. Based on your e-mails already,
the settings have been changed to the following, but I still cannot get it
to send or receive messages. When I try to check messages I get "error
connecting to pop server: error 10061." Outgoing messages simply never send.
I tell it to send them and I get "0 messages sent."
New Settings:
BN operating system: Keysoft 7.5
Type of e-mail account: gmail
User name: [email protected]
POP server: pop.gmail.com
Secure connection for pop server: yes
SMTP server: smtp.gmail.com
Secure connection for SMTP server: yes
SMTP authentication required: yes
POP port: 995
SMTP port: 587 (have also tried 25 & 465)
Thanks for the previous suggestions. Those are setting changes I wouldn't
have thought of. Maybe we can still come up with the right change. Thanks.
Lauren

Try changing from port 465 to port 25, or 587 if that does not work. I ran
into the same thing; Windows Mail worked fine, but the bn took some
tweaking
to get working right. Also, ensure that your username is your *ENTIRE*
email
address, not just the first part; mine would be [email protected] for my
username, not just mehgcap. Let us know how it goes!
Have a great day,
Alex

Hello List,
I'm wondering if any of you can help me get a gmail account working on my
Braille Note. I am a grad student and have been trying unsuccessfully to
get
my school email account to work on the BN for some time now. A friend
recommended forwarding my school e-mails to a gmail account and have the
gmail account on the BN. But so far, that hasn't worked either. I have
included some details about my settings below. If anyone has any advice on
what I can do to get the account to work, I'd greatly appreciate it.
BN operating system: Keysoft 7.5
Type of e-mail account: gmail
POP server: pop.gmail.com
Secure connection for pop server: yes
SMTP server: smtp.gmail.com
Secure connection for smtp server: yes
SMTP authentication required: no
POP port: 995
SMTP port: 465
These settings were recommended by a friend for use on Outlook Express,
and
the gmail account does indeed work with Outlook Express. Perhaps the
settings need to be modified for the BN, however.
Thanks for your help.
Lauren
