MadGutts Posted November 17, 2004 Posted November 17, 2004 Sorry if this has been covered ppl...But Gmail has now gotten wise to the public demands You can setup your gmail account to enable the POP features. And there is extensive help on how to configure your mail client too!!! Looks good and works well ! Gmail 4 ever!

I don't like browsing internet pages for mail, i love my outlook I hope they won't make us pay for pop like yahoo does.. Thunderbird is better then Outlook on the Gmail site it says they do not plan to ever charge for POP support.

XtremeMaC Posted November 17, 2004 Posted November 17, 2004 pop.gmail.comsmtp.gmail.comTo enable POP in your Gmail account, please follow these steps: Log in to your Gmail account. Click 'Settings' at the top of any Gmail page. Click 'Forwarding and POP' in the orange 'Mail Settings' box. Select 'Enable POP for all mail' or 'Enable POP for mail that arrives from now on.' Choose the action you would like your Gmail messages to take after they are accessed with POP. Configure your POP client*, and click 'Save Changes.' *To learn about configuring POP access, please visit the POP client configuration list. Have you enabled POP in your Gmail account? We're rolling out POP access to all users in phases. Once it's available to you, a 'Forwarding and POP' tab appears on your 'Settings' page. You need to have this tab in your Gmail account before you can configure POP in your mail client.u lazy ppl!
SiMoNsAyS Posted November 17, 2004 Posted November 17, 2004 i personally don't like mail clients (perhaps because my experiences with outlook before), for people like me gmail extension for firefox!
sven Posted November 17, 2004 Posted November 17, 2004 the ports are different, pop 995 - smtp 465, both connections need ssl, its in the advanced section of the set up. it can all be read in the how to set up, look a at manual.@XtremeMaC, i hope you looked at the confiquration instructions, or it wont work lol
MadGutts Posted November 18, 2004 Author Posted November 18, 2004 Are yes but it aint quite that simple XtremeMac...You also need to configure your mail client....BUT ! as luck would have it click here for all the mail clients individual setup features... Dont forget you need to go to your gmail accout and turn on the pop first...
XtremeMaC Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 WHAT IS IT WITH U GUYS HUH?I SIMPLY STATED WHAT U'VE TO DO 1ST AND THAT POP EXISTS AND ONCE U BROWSE TO YOUR GMAIL AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT EXIST UNDER "NEW FEATURES" U'LL SOON SEE THE ADDITIONAL THINGS U'VE TO DOAND YOUR MAIL CANNOT SIMPLY GET YOUR MAIL UNLESS U CONFIGURE IT! AT SOME POINT OF COURSE U HAVE TO SET YOUR E-MAIL CLIENT !! I DIDN'T POST ALL THE DIFFERENT CONFIGS FOR ALL KINDS OF CLIENTS THEREFOR JUST GAVE THE POP & SMTP ADDRESSES! OF COUSE U NEED TO CONFIGURE YOUR MAIL CLIENT!OF COUSE I'VE LOOKED AT THE DARN CONFIGS AND ITS WORKING! YES PORTS ARE DIFFERENT!@MadGutts SINCE U JUST TALK AND DON'T CHECK THINGS AND BC I DID I KNOW THAT YOUR LINK THAT U'VE GIVEN DOESN'T WORK UNLESS U'RE SIGNED IN! SO I DIDN'T POST THE LINKS! OKAY? SIMPLY BC WHEN U LOGIN U'D NORMALLY CLICK ON "NEW FEATURES" BC U WONDER WHAT'S NEW!, INSTEAD OF FINDING WRONGS AND RIGHTS ON MY POST 1ST READ IT ALL! IT SAYS CONFIGURE YOUR POP CLIENT!
