Use Apple Mail 3.6 With Gmail Pop

Featured Replies

I have been having problems sending mail with a POP Gmail account in Mail 3.6. It worked for a couple days and has been on and off the past 2 days. Now I can send nothing, but can receive. Here are all the settings I can find if anyone else is using this setup. I've done the "Connection Doctor" test built into Mail 3.6 and it shows that it's trying ports 587 and 465.

Under the "Account Information" tab

Account Type: POP

Description: Gmail

Email Address: [email protected]

Full Name: name

Incoming Mail Server: pop.gmail.com

User Name: [email protected]

Password: password

Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): Gmail (Offline)

-Use only this server is checked

Under the "Advanced tab

-Enable this account is checked

-Include when automatically checking for new mail is checked

-Remove copy from server after retrieving a message is NOT checked

Under the Account Information tab for smtp.gmail.com

Description: Gmail

Server Name: smtp.gmail.com

Under the Advanced tab for smtp.gmail.com

-Use default ports (25, 465, 587) is checked

-Use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is checked

Authentication: Password

User Name: [email protected]

Password: password

I've tried everything here.

Had that problem a while ago, it was weird.

It happened again this morning. I changed the option from "Use default port 25, 465, 587) to custom port 587. I don't know how the default port option works but I wonder if the times that I can't send is because it's trying to use port 25 which is blocked by TTT. I don't know why it wouldn't automatically try the other two ports, but this is a new feature in Mail so maybe it's not perfected yet. Anyway, setting port 587 for SMTP seems to be working so far.
