REMEMBER: Default setting does not work.
===============

*Incoming Mail (POP3) Server -- requires SSL:
pop.gmail.com
Use SSL: Yes
Port: 995

*Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server -- requires TLS:
smtp.gmail.com (use authentication)
Use Authentication: Yes
Use STARTTLS: Yes (some clients call this SSL)
Port: 465 or 587, but these days is 587!

*Account Name:
your Gmail username (including '@gmail.com')

*Email Address:
your full Gmail email address (username@gmail.com)

*Password:
your Gmail password

If your client does not support SMTP authentication, you won't be able to access your Gmail messages.

*'Save Changes' after enabling POP in Gmail *To ensure that Gmail can communicate with your mail client, be sure to click 'Save Changes' on the Gmail 'Mail Settings' page.

===============
Server Name: pop.gmail.com port: 995
User Name: user@gmail.com
Make sure these settings are checked:
- Use secure connection (SSL)

Outgoing Server Settings
========================
Server Name:smtp.gmail.com port:465
Make sure these settings are checked:
- Use name and password
User Name: user@gmail.com
Use secure connection: SSL
