O.P. BUG:cann''t check the GMail pop3 mail!!!
Messenger Plus can't check the gmail pop3

I set
mail address:??????@gmail.com (?????? is my mail name)
server:pop.gmail.com

and I'm sure the account and password is right

because gmail need SSL connect,so I set the SSL check box true,and the port changed to 995

I pressed the test button,but it showed me an error message about can't connect the server?!

Is something wrong in my setting?
Any other one can use the MsgPlus to check gmail?

Have you changed the pop settings in the gmail.com settings area, www.gmail.com.

Press "Settings", then press "Forwarding and POP" and change the "POP downloading" area accordingly.

try it without the @gmail.com

if that doesnt work log into gmail in your browser and go to "Settings > Forwarding and POP" and make sure POP is enabled

i thought that although you could do it it doesnt work properly becuase it always tells you about emails you have had

Crosschecked it with how i have it set up, looks alright to me. I think you forgot to enable pop3 in your gmail account as Traxor already said:

Also read MsgPlus! 3.5 Pop3 Gmail Limitations.
