Gmail POP3 Email Settings in Nokia E61i and other Symbian S60 mobiles

February 11, 2008

I am writing this post on setting up Gmail POP email because some people requested it, but I would still recommend using Gmail IMAP Email Settings. which I posted a while back. The easiest way to set up your Gmail POP3 Email Inbox is to go to MENU> TOOLS> SETT.WIZARD> E-MAIL SETTINGS and simply follow the instructions.

The default settings of Settings Wizard is for POP3 Gmail Email Inbox.
Settings Wizard
Settings Wiz Email

Or do it manually by following the steps provided by Gmail here

Standard instructions:

  1. Enable POP in your Gmail account. Don’t forget to click Save Changes when you’re done.
  2. Configure your client to match the settings below:
  3. Incoming Mail (POP3) Server - requires SSL: pop.gmail.com
    Use SSL: Yes
    Port: 995
    Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - requires TLS: smtp.gmail.com (use authentication)
    Use Authentication: Yes
    Use STARTTLS: Yes (some clients call this SSL)
    Port: 465 or 587
    Account Name: your Gmail username (including @gmail.com)
    Email Address: your full Gmail email address (username@gmail.com)
    Password: your Gmail password
  4. You’re now ready to use POP with your Gmail account.

Gmail POP Connection Settings
INCOMING E-MAIL Settings
Incoming Gmail POP
Incoming Gmail POP Port

OUTGOING E-MAIL Settings
Outgoing Gmail POP settings Outgoing Gmail POP Port Settings

Go to OPTIONS>CONNECT
Connect Gmail

Now, go to OPTIONS> RETRIEVE E-MAIL> ALL
Retrieve Email ALL

That’s it. Now you can start using Gmail POP email.

I will still strongly recommend that you try Gmail IMAP Email as it is faster, and has more benefits than POP3.

    Pop3.live.com
    Pop.tcsn.qwest.net
    pop3.email.msn.com

    None seem to work and the wizard has nothing either.

    Hi! I have personally not used Hotmail POP or Live POP, but I have found some information which can be useful to you.

    You can read the whole article about Hotmail/Live POP Email on
    Windows Live Official Mailcall Blog here

    http://mailcall.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!CC9301187A51FE33!44348.entry

    (Do not click the link above, it wont open. Copy paste the whole URL in your browser address field)

    If you want information regarding Outlook Express POP Access, read all about it on Windows Live Official Email Support Blog here

    http://emailsupport.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!5D6F5A79A79B6708!5359.entry

    (Do not click the link above, it wont open. Copy paste the whole URL in your browser address field)

    Hotmail Plus users ($19.95 a year) will be able to use POP access from any device. (Please note that only Hotmail Plus users and not MSN Premium users. We are working to offer everyone POP access eventually, but for now, Hotmail Plus users are the only ones that can do so.)

    Hotmail POP service requires that you use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) with the POP and SMTP connection and use SMTP authentication. This is to ensure that your email address and password are not subject to tampering. The settings are the following:

    * POP: pop3.live.com (port 995)
    * SMTP: smtp.live.com (port 25)
    * Note: make sure you check the box that indicates that your outgoing server requires authentication (in most mail clients this is not checked by default).
    * Username: your full email address
    * Password: your Windows Live ID password

    I hope this helps.
