Hello all I'm really new to this forum. 1st post.
I hope someone can help me.

Firstly my computer runs Windows XP.

I have a Gmail (email) account and I've tried to set up Outlook Express to receive my male there.

I have been through Gmail's instructions on how to use Pop3 for mail forwarding and followed their instructions to the letter.

I have also followed their instructions on how to configure my email client (Microsoft OE 2000). I have checked and re-checked their instructions to make sure I have EVERYTHING set right and it seems I do. (to the best of my knowledge)

As it is... I can send emails from OE but cannot receive emails from my Gmail account?

I've spent hours trying to achieve this with no luck and massive frustration.
Can anyone help please?
Thanks in anticipation
Tony

OK here's the frustrating thing. I set up Outlook 2000 as my client instead of OE-6 and guess what. In Outlook I CAN receive my pop gmail but not forward SMTP.
The opposite applies in OE-6. I can forward SMTP but not incoming pop3?
What could possibly be wrong?
Thanks again guys
Tony
