When I go to "OUTGOING SMTP SERVER (at the bottom left) - I get an
"Add or Edit" list (empty box).
How do I handle THAT !?
One for Frontier is already there. "DoctorBill - mail.frontier.com"
Do I "ADD" in a new one for gmail ?
What would it be ? Account Name - mail.gmail.com Port to 465 SSL/TLS ?
Well THAT did not work !
The Jargon in this thread is IMMENSE !
1) Edit > Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings
2) Scroll down in left panel to Outgoing Server (SMTP)
3) Click the Add... button
4) In fields enter:
Description: GMail
Server Name: smtp.gmail.com
Port: 587
Connection Security: STARTTLS
Authentication method: Password transmitted insecurely *
User Name: <your gmail address>
* This is really Normal Password, because of STARTTLS encrypted
communication to server is already established before password is sent.
(This is legacy way which I *know* works because I am currently using
it, but I noticed there is now option for OAuth2. I will convert my to
that option and update results)
5) Click OK
6) Back in Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings window in left pane click
on your GMail account and in right hand panel under Outgoing Server
(SMTP) droplist select GMail server just defined above.
7) Click OK
8) In your gmail account compose new email and try to send it, should
get password prompt to set and save password and now you should be able
to send email from SeaMonkey via gmail.
