Gmail pop settings

Smeghead · 10-22-2004, 03:15 AM

Hi all,
I am trying to setup Outlook to receive my Gmail emails. Does anyone know what the POP and SMTP settings should be?

Thanks

i think i read somewhere that gmail has blocked pop3 retrieval, but i'm not positive.

It did. Can't use it because gmail gets its revenue from the ads you see when you view your inbox and email in it.

How about gPopper, it's an interface to allow POP3 access to gmail. I have YahooPops! that allows me to have POP3 access to my Yahoo account, this is a similar program.

gpopper can do it.

but google blocked all other pop access.
