Leslie, GWL has been able to get Gmail and Ariel to play nice.
It took a lot of testing various permutations to get it to work for us, but I remember specifically that the I.T. department had to set the account password to ...empty? ...verify at point of something? Whatever it was, it was done via the local SMTP relay. Although I'm fuzzy on the relay side of things, I can give you our specific Ariel settings. Whether or not the email address was fully qualified was important. In Ariel's settings, on the Mail tab: Enable outgoing mail. SMTP = 25 outgoing mail server = your mail server (we used the IP address) SMTP account name = just the mail name (not the fully qualified email address) password = your password Enable incoming mail. type = IMAP Port = 993 incoming mail server = your incoming mail server (we used the IP address) account name = your fully qualified email address (wha...@whatev.edu) password = your password email return address = your fully qualified email address Ping me off-list if you'd like me to facilitate getting your I.T. folks in touch with our I.T. folks.
