Gmail does work over POP3 btw.

http://mail.google.com/support/bin/topic.py?topic=1555
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/a...273&topic=1555 to configure Gmail for POP access
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/a...276&topic=1555 to configure OE

Otherwise, because it uses SSL it needs to use pt 995 not the normal 110 for POP3.

As for sending, then you can't use Gmail SMTP, you have to use NTL's or whoever your ISP is, you cannot connect to an SMTP server away from your current network (prevents spamming).

So you need to use smtp.ntlworld.com on pt 25.
