Hi Sieghar, all,

Typically you first need to choose what sort of account you want to add, e.g. 
Gmail, Microsoft Outlook, Exchange etc.
Since you have a Gmail email address, I assume you are adding that account, 
once you picked Gmail, you should only need to enter your Gmail email address 
and then the password.
That of course is assuming you are not still using the POP3 protocol, not sure 
if Gmail still allows it, but if it still is possible and that is what you use, 
then I would highly recommend you change this and start using IMAP.

I'm aware of Apple assistance Richard but what I want to know is what are the 
steps that I need to fill in?

Thanks,

Hi folk,

I want to have Apple Mail as my default email client but I can't appear to get 
it working.

I go to the Emails app and choose Mail as my default, insert the correct 
password but no joy I'm afraid.

Is there anything I myself need to do to activate Mail?

Do I need to do anything else as I have entered my email address and
user name also

Thanks,

Tony
