Re: All things Gmail.
 

thanks Paul - just looked & me too, excellent - especially with the forthcoming restriction on accessing hotmail. :tu:

Re: All things Gmail.
 

Ditto, all set :tu: thanks

Re: All things Gmail.
 

Since a lot of members here signed up at the same time I'm hoping that a lot of members now have pop access :) Makes it a lot easier to access multiple accounts without having to run multiple applications or have applications sitting in the background to do just one account.

Re: All things Gmail.
 

It will do, as soon as i get to grips with it all, :p: slow maybe, but i'll get there :tu:

Re: All things Gmail.
 

there are some very good, clear instructions on the google gmail site to sort the pop access, think there was even a config script there too :)

Gmail link gives the settings for outlook express as an example :)

Just in case anyone still wants a gmail a/c then drop me a PM with your email addy

Re: All things Gmail.
 

Hmm, I have it at last.
Interesting thing though, it starts of as disabled, you can enable it for all mail or for all mail from now on.

You cannot disable it, there is no option?
Would you need to? I suppose that you just no longer connect to it.

Re: All things Gmail.
 

the option to disable has appeared on mine after i saved, logged out and logged back in

Re: All things Gmail.
 

I've got it as well :D

Re: All things Gmail.
 

Nice one :tu:

I've added my gmail acct to mailwasher now :)

Re: All things Gmail.
 

Okidoki.
Somehow I don't think that I will be using POP until my 3000+ spam mails have gone :D

Hopefully they will implement a "delete all spam" button soon.

Re: All things Gmail.
 

Ye gads :eek: where do you use your gmail account address? I have yet to get any spam in my gmail inbox, mind you I am careful where I use it ;) I use my hotmail account for sites that require registration most of the time, might as well let uncle bill deal with my junk mail :p:

Re: All things Gmail.
 

I've set up the pop, but it doesn't seem to go through the email scanner, incoming & outgoing, on my antivirus. :shrug:

My other email accounts are fine. Using Norton AV 04.

Re: All things Gmail.
 

Gmail doesn't use standard ports, it may be that causing the issue, I linked to the gmail instructions a couple of posts back and they have the port numbers in them if you need them :)
