cannot setup GMAIL to work with windows mail

Hi, does anyone know how to set up gmail to work with Windows Mail. I
changed the ports and checked the ssl buttons and I still don't know how to
get it to work! Has anyone set theirs up? Does anyone else's gmail work
with Windows Mail? Please help me if you can! I would greatly appreciate
it. Thanks, Marina

Re: cannot setup GMAIL to work with windows mail

Gmail works fine with Windows Mail. Be sure to follow Gmail directions:
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/a...y?answer=13276
Those directions are for Outlook Express, but they will also work for
Windows Mail.

Also, you need to enable Gmail for POP:
