I can't send emails via mail. I can receive but not send. I have set up gmail on mail. Any ideas? No problems with the set up previously to this.

Go to Mail Preferences- Accounts and confirm you are providing Gmail what they require to send and receive mail. And DON'T specify Secure Socket Layer. Some mail accts don't like SSL
Good Luck to you.

Can't set up Gmail in Mail 3.5

Hi,
I cannot set up either POP nor IMAP. I get the error message: Trying to log on to IMAP (or POP) failed. But my user and password are correct.
Interestingly, I didn't receive a testmail from googlemail to my old mail address either. What is wrong?
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hello,
I just got a Mac for a first time and I'm trying to configure Mail 3.5 with my gmail account and even after having followed all the steps seen on this forum, I just can't do it. The messages that come up are:
"The IMAP server "imap.gmail.com" is not responding. Try checking the network connection, and that the server name is correct. Otherwise, the server might be temporarily unavailable. If you continue, you might not be able to receive messages"
AND
"The SMTP server "smtp.gmail.com" is not responding. Try checking the network connection, and that the server name is correct. Otherwise, the server might be temporarily unavailable. If you continue, you might not be able to send messages"
it might be very basic but I can't manage. Can anyone help??
Thanks in advance!!

I can't set up gmail in my iPad 2. Keep on saying ' can't connect with SSL and ask me whether to connect without using SSL, then I press 'yes' and it said again IMAP is not working and tell me to see network connection and incoming mail server.

I can't set up gmail in my iPad 2. Keep on saying ' can't connect with SSL and ask me whether to connect without using SSL, then I press 'yes' and it said again IMAP is not working and tell me to see network connection and incoming mail server. No idea how to do anymore. Already tried to figure out. But not work. Can anyone pls help me?

Nope, doesn't pass verification. I get the spinner for a minute or so, then the alert about setting it up without SSL. Are you suggesting I disable Fetch and Push BEFORE I enter the account details? Because I never get past the account details screen, unless I choose "Set up without SSL" after the warning.

Why has my iPad downloaded over 7000 spam messages into a folder called gmail/all mail? I have not set up a gmail account on my iPad

No you will not have to set up the iPad all over again. Resetting the iPad is like rebooting your computer. You will lose no apps, data, settings .... Nothing at all. I like to use the expression that it's like "clearing out the cobwebs" on the iPad's memory.
The reason I am suggesting this is that there are some other sort of bizarre issues that occur in the mail app and the reset seems to clear up those issues. So I think it is worth a try.
On the other hand, if you have restored the iPad to factory settings, I don't know that it will help. If nothing else works, try going to your web mail using a browser and see if you can't deal with this in there.

Can I set up gmail from my "mail" application?

I have wireless and I use airport etc to get the internet in my building. I am trying to set up gmail with POP and every time I do I cannot receive any emails although I can send emails out from my mail application with gmail-any ideas as to why I cannot receive emails would be appreciated... or can I ask an apple technician about this problem?

Did you follow the directions given at Gmail on how to set-up?
Let us know the setting from preferences/accounts so we can see if anything is incorrect. Frequently it is needing to have the server port changed. Mine is at 587, and all is working fine. Feel free to hide the info you prefer not to share, an example "username"@gmail.com.
