Julie,
Specifying different port numbers on the icon/braille plus is possible. Use
the syntax: [server:port]. Example: [pop.gmail.com:995]

Hi list.
I have been trying to set up my gmail account on the Braille plus. When I
try to follow the directions gmail gives, I get the message "unable to
connect to server" I looked in outlook in hopes that those settings would
provide me some clues on what I would need to change. I found that the port
numbers for sending and receiving were not the default gateways, but 995 and
465 respectively for SMTP. There is not option to change port numbers on the
icon. Will this be added in the future? Is the inability to specify ports my
problem? Can someone who has successfully connected to their gmail account
be so kind as to give me some hints?
Thanks in advance
Julie
