Re: Virgin and Googlemail

no problem with Googlemail and POP3 here.
Did you change the POP server under advanced settings?

Re: Virgin and Googlemail

Checked my mail server logs and Pop3 to SMTP agent for the last 24hrs and no issues collecting off 6 googlemail accounts (A combination of gmail.com and several domains with MX records pointing to google)

Hotmail is also fine.

No problem here, Live Mail, Hotmail & Google mail all working as expected - sorry, I know that doesn't help those having problems, but posted for perspective..

Re: Virgin and Googlemail

Just configured pop3 access for my gmail account - successfully downloaded 1672 messages totalling 89.7MB, so seems to work OK from here. Interestingly had to check mail four times to get it all - seems to be a limit somewhere on how much you can get at once all blocks about the same size (though not exactly) ie twentysomething MB no timeouts here.

DON'T delete that backup Outlook file from your Partner's PC until you're sure it works ok on yours!
