O.P. Adding a gmail account on Messenger Plus!
Hey,
if I go through preferances > general > E-Mail Accounts
how do I set it up to check a gmail account?
My log in on WLM is Gmail so that would be really useful.
What do I put in on
E-Mail Server: :
to get it to read my gmail?
Thanks

All of wich can be found on your Gmail account..help - http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=13287&topic=1555
Also see MsgPlus! Pop3 Gmail Limitations

Edit: don't forget to enable pop in "forwarding and pop" in Gmail settings.

RE: Adding a gmail account on Messenger Plus!
I have a problem regarding this subject myself; although I've written EXACTLY what's been described, i STILL get an "unable to connect to server", when I'm testing my settings..

I can get this to work perfectly with my IPS -mail -address, but NOT with Gmail! ^o)

I've also tried to disable my FireWall -program, Sygate Personal FireWall (and totally exit the whole program). I also have a router, the NetGear WGT624, and I've tried to forward port 995 to my/this PC.

EDIT: And yes!, I've POP-forwarded my gmail-settings; [Image: gmailpopfu6.th.jpg]

Many thanks in advance!

PS: If you know how to make me enter the gmail -website by pressing the e-mail -logo in the window where your friends and contacts is listet (don't remember the name, sorry), please don't hesitate to tell me; I would really like to know that as well! ;)

And if you want to comment my spelling and grammar mistakes, please bear in mind that English is not my first language..

RE: Adding a gmail account on Messenger Plus!
Right ive done all as said. There is pop ups saying when i have recieved a new e-mail. But the mail button in at the top right of the main WLM window does not work at all. I would expect it to take me to my inbox, it doesnt even have a number next to it representing unread mail...
