As another guess, take a look at the server settings in account
settings. It sounds as though you are trying to contact a secure
server without the security option enabled, or vice versa.

There is nothing in password manager for the account. The server
settings are have secure connection checked & set the way gmail says to
set them. I think the problem is in Seamonkey somewhere since it never
asks for a password.
Okay, the way SeaMonkey Mail works is that you enter your username
when you create the account, and you will be prompted for the password
when you connect to the server. Since you have been unable to connect
to the server, you have never been prompted to enter a password, so of
course there is no entry.
The problem has to be with your server settings. I have four gmail
accounts set up in SM, and all work fine. Somehow yours is not
configured correctly, so the connection is never made.
Are you trying to set this up as an imap or POP account? Is this a
straight gmail address, or is a cobranded domain name?

I'm trying to set up a POP account. It's just a regular gmail address.
It's set up in Outlook Express on the PC but I'm trying to use SM on the
laptop since it uses Win7. I set it up using the instructions they have
for TB as much as I could.
Well, mine are IMAP, so the server settings will not be the same, but
for what its worth, here we are:
Server Type: IMAP Mail Server (of course yours should be POP mail server)
Server Name: imap.gmail.com (yours should be pop.gmail.com)
Username: (whatever goes before @gmail.com, not the whole address)
Security Settings
Connection Security: SSL/TLS
Use secure authentication: *unchecked*
The dialog looks a little different in SM 2.0.
