Gmail POP3

Asked by trican in Miscellaneous

Tags: , ,

Hi

I'm trying to setup gmail and pop3 access for use with thunderbird on my linux (RH9) setup. I've followed the instructions given on the gmail page - however thunderbird times out when trying to connect to pop.gmail.com server?

I can access my other email account on my local email server on the network. And I'm behind a fairly restrictive server/firewall - but have no problem coonecting to external websites. I'm guesssing my connection to pop.gmail.com goes through the proxy server (and I've correctly configured my local thunderbird settings -since on my regular email account if there are graphics web links its able to retrieve them). the connection port configured on gmail is 995 as specified on the gmail help page
