Gmail account not working with windows mail

Tue, 01/08/2008 - 04:40 — anisha

Hi ,

I followed the instructions to configure my gmail account to windows mail. i use a broadbrand connection. After configuring the windows mail when i click send/receive i get the following error message :

The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'pop.gmail.com', Server: 'pop.gmail.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E.

Kindle help me to resolve that and use windows mail with my gmail account. Expecting your support.

Thanks in advance,
Anisha

Firewall

Maybe your firewall is blocking the connection to the e-mail server.

Same Problem

Just got the same problem, and maybe it's not the firewall, i just add the program to the firewall exception list, so it's not.

any one suggests something else?

Solution

It is quite possible that you haven't entered the correct

* Incoming or outgoing server address

I also have the same problem. I can receive but not send. E-mail stops in the outbox. I get the same error message. Using verizon as ISP. Ether net to DSL connection to Bellsouth to the net.
I have searched for the problem . Any suggestions?
