| | Having difficulties synchronizing gmail with Windows Mail. I started the process from the following link: http://email.about.com/od/windowsmai..._get_gmail.htm I felt like a computer genious until half way down the page where you'll find your first hyper-link to : http://email.about.com/cs/oetipstricks/qt/et101202.htm As of now, I've gone down the lists of Windows Help and Support, and am dumbfounded on what to do next. If you can be of assistance please comment. I'd like to sync all of my mail folders with Windows Mail and they should all be POP3/IMAP accounts. These are the types I'd like to configure with Windows Mail: Comcast (Which my internet provider can easily assist me with) ... don't comment on this one. Hotmail Gmail Yahoo |

| | Re: Having difficulties synchronizing gmail with Windows Mail. POP3 accounts don't sync like an IMAP account. Comcast and Hotmail can be set up as POP3 accounts but not IMAP. Gmail will do either. Yahoo does webmail only, unless you pay extra for POP access. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "Kenney Curtiss" <Kenney Curtiss@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:E21DFF12-C3FC-4947-9592-F14718947827@xxxxxx Quote: >I started the process from the following link: > > http://email.about.com/od/windowsmai..._get_gmail.htm > > I felt like a computer genious until half way down the page where you'll > find your first hyper-link to : > > http://email.about.com/cs/oetipstricks/qt/et101202.htm > > As of now, I've gone down the lists of Windows Help and Support, and am > dumbfounded on what to do next.
