here's the deal.
To enable Gmail, in the incoming server box, you need to type in
pop.gmail.com:995
In the outgoing box, you need to put in
smtp.gmail.com:587
Enable TLS and if the icon has it, I am not sure, SSL.
thanks

What are the server names?
I have used the servers listed in the manual, and the e-mail program on my
Braille+ just keeps telling me that I have the wrong servers listed.
Here is what I have
Outgoing server:  pop.gmail.com:995 and server type is secure pop3
Outgoing server =  stp.gmail.com:587 and outgoing server type = SMTP with
TLS.
Is anything wrong with this?  I have checked, and my e-mail address and
password are correct.  I also have the setting set to requires Oth
Indication.  I have continuously read the Gmail website, and I just can't
seem to find the server names.  How do they expect us to set the Gmail
account up on a PC running MS Outlook/Outlook express, or something like the
Icon?
Visit my blog, called Blind Mobile Tech at:

I will discuss products such as the Icon and Braille+ in this blog.

I didn't see any response to this, so just in case no one's answered you,
the incoming port is 995, and the outgoing port is 587.

Hi all,
I had to reflash my unit and I forgot what the incoming and the SMTP port numbers for gmail were.
