All fine after deleting the setup and recreating one using POP (instead of IMPç which is not supported)

Remember to tick the incoming + the outgoing mail SSL security' option.

Remember also to set your internet Gmail' settings to allow POP.

Oops, I spoke too fast! It is logging on and synchroinising, but no email comes!

There was a problem with gmail in general today - probably for 2-3 hours...

There is a fix for that issue! It took me a while to find out, but it works perfectly.

In the gmail account settings of outlook mobile, add "recent:" in front of your username, Eg. "recent:kyphur"

Now messages downloaded on your PC wil still show up on your phone and vice versa. :)Tested, it rocks!

thank you so much for this tip. I thought I was going mad, everything seemed to be set up as per instructions etc, but messages kept vanishing. Then I realised that it was opening outlook which stimulated this. Your tip has worked a treat for me.

what if I don't have it setup on my pc and only on my phone. As of right now, it synchronizes and told me it was downloading all 465 of my messages, but it showed nothing in the inbox.

Have you tried the java applet? I find it much nicer than the POP version, though the "recent" tip might make me go back.

The java applet seems throw up a ton of java errors in WM6 for me...anyone else get that?

[nispen]

I don't have those errors. I am running LSVW's version of WM6. The Gmail applet works fine. It did NOT work under WM5 but now it does.
