There's a pretty detailed howto so far as enabling POP or IMAP access in
gmail on its website, in the help section. It'll also tell you what servers
you'll need as your incoming and outgoing servers. As now we're sort of
straying into off-topic areas of that particular service, I'd recommend you
start there for your answers.

Heh. Jusat expanded the prior message in this thread and found others had
answered you. Like I said, I was in a hurry. Can those of you who use
gmail with outlook express explain how to set that feature up?
That, or, if it's been previously covered, point me to where I can find a
step-by-step, dummy-proof set of instructions?
Thanks.
