That was where I was going next, I'm glad its working for you.


What the user needs to do now is to go into the firewall settings and 
change it so that SM is allowed to connect to the internet, then 
re-enable the firewall.

Did you note which port you are using for outgoing mail?  
Is it the same port as used for incoming mail?

Thanks

It will ask you the first time it logs in. Check the boxes to
remember the account name and password.

I've tried to log in, it just comes up  says connection refused. It
never asks for the password when I tell it to get mail.



Just a guess:
Tools = Password Manager
Have a look for mailbox://.. and delete the unwanted entries.

As another guess, take a look at the server settings in account 
settings.  It sounds as though you are trying to contact a secure server 
without the security option enabled, or vice versa.

There is nothing in password manager for the account.  The server 
settings are have secure connection checked  set the way gmail says to 
set them.  I think the problem is in Seamonkey somewhere since it never 
asks for a password.

Okay, the way SeaMonkey Mail works is that you enter your username when 
you create the account, and you will be prompted for the password when 
you connect to the server.  Since you have been unable to connect to the 
server, you have never been prompted to enter a password, so of course 
there is no entry.


The problem has to be with your server settings.  I have four gmail 
accounts set up in SM, and all work fine. Somehow yours is not 
configured correctly, so the connection is never made.


Are you trying to set this up as an imap or POP account? Is this a 
straight gmail address, or is a cobranded domain name?

I'm trying to set up a POP account.  It's just a regular gmail address.  
It's set up in Outlook Express on the PC but I'm trying to use SM on the 
laptop since it uses Win7.  I set it up using the instructions they have 
for TB as much as I could.

I'm trying to set up a POP account. It's just a regular gmail address.

for TB as much as I could.





Well, mine are IMAP, so the server settings will not be the same, but 
for what its worth, here we are:


Server Type: IMAP Mail Server (of course yours should be POP mail server)

Server Name: imap.gmail.com  (yours should be pop.gmail.com)

Username:  (whatever goes before @gmail.com, not the whole address)

Security Settings

Connection Security: SSL/TLS

Use secure authentication:  *unchecked*

The dialog looks a little different in SM 2.0.

I checked the settings, unchecked the secure authorization  it still 
won't connect.  I went to the link above  installed the telnet client, 
but it still comes up connection refused.  FINALLY, I just tried 
disabling the firewall  it connected.  I guess the firewall is blocking 
the port so I'll have to set it up to allow access.
