Can someone tell me the secret to checking my gmail with Outlook Express?

I've set up gmail in OE as my "default mail server" yet every time I try to send/receive the same error occurs. OE can't connect. I'm sure I have the POP3, in/out %26amp; connection info correct. Is there a trick with gmail? Because I'm dial-up I prefer to work offline. I don't have any problem with gmail while online.

You need to turn POP mail on at the gmail settings page. I can't remember the location correctly but you should probably notice it when you see it.

Reply:make sure ur settings are as follows:





incoming mail server: pop.gmail.com


outgoing mail server: smtp.gmail.com





under advanced settings u must check on the "this server requires an encrypted connection (SSL)" for both smtp and pop3





hope this helps!
