Gnail when where how?
« on: July 18, 2011, 09:07:39 PM »
Gnail when where how? Can you do Gmail on on the  iPhone?

This is a recommendation for an article I found. IMHO it is the most clear, concise,guide,but with all the details needed. This guy is good!
But you might not agree.  ;D

He tells sabot accessing Gmail in Your Email Program or smart phone
It covers:
•Outlook Express
•Pegasus Mail      << Yes. It works!
•IncrediMail          << Hard to believe!
•Mac OS X Mail
•Thunderbird
•Windows Live Mail
.. any many otters, Plus Mobile Devices and smart phones.

Basic GNAIL settings are:
•Gmail IMAP port: 993
•Gmail IMAP TLS/SSL required: yes
•Gmail SMTP port: 465
•Gmail SMTP TLS/SSL required: yes

For much more details, see the article in the link above.
And by the way, by using SSL and alternate ports, this works with any ISP that blocks email port 25.

This has helped me.
What about you? Did you already know all that?

Yes, I already knew that.  ;)  BTW, the gmail account I used in the test with my mother's computer on an AT&T account (discussed in another of your forum discussion topics) was using SMTP port: 465.  My impression is that many POP/IMAP email providers have stopped using port 25.  If AT&T is, indeed, playing policeman with port 25, that should be an incentive to avoid using any non-AT&T account with them that uses port 25.
