Whoa, you must have some high powered email accounts if Gmail is like
all of your others. Gmail uses encrypted POP and SMTP. You certainly
don't set them up like you set up a non-SSL email account. You don't
use the same ports etc.

Maybe I misinterpreted what you meant.

It's just one or two checkboxes of a difference. And due to spam, secure mailboxes are becoming more and more popular...


In any case...
- log in to Gmail
- click on "Settings
- click on "Forwarding and POP"
- click on "Enable POP for all mail"
- click on "Configuration instructions" below
- click on "Apple Mail"

Your instructions are there.


I recently activated a Gmail account and I set it up to work with Mail. My only question about this is that I would think the people at Google would not have allowed this to happen. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems that besides the 1GB of storage for the email, by setting it up via POP with a mail client, it seems that I can not take advantage of all of the features that sets Gmail apart from the others, i.e., the Google based search feature, etc. Just wanted to put that out there.
