Thank you. It works now. My problem was that I didn't change the options in the 
pop 3 and smtp lists from their defaults.

  Now if only we can have IMAP access with the Icon.  My problem would be 
solved.

  I'm not sure where your problem lies, but I'll give you all the specifics for 
setting up a gmail account below and hope that something in it helps you.  I 
use a gmail account on the Braille Plus all the time and it works quite nicely. 
 Gmail settings below.

   


  Incoming server: pop.gmail.com:995

   

  Incoming server type: Secure pop3.

   

  incoming username: has to be full email address, not just what's before the 
at-sign.

   

  outgoing mail server: smtp.gmail.com:587.

   

  Outgoing server type: smtp with TLS.

   

  Outgoing authentication: requires authentication. 

   

  Also remember that pop mail has to be enabled from your account settings  at 
gmail.com, but I'm guessing that's done if you're using it with outlook express 
as your last message seemed to indicate. 

   

  Hope this helps,

   

  Jenny
