Your name: "put in your name"
E-mail address: "your full gmail address including @gmail.com"

NEXT

User name: (this is the key):
"recent:xxxx@gmail.com" with xxxx being your address. The key is recent
Password:
"put in your password"

Check to save password (I assume you want this)

Domain is blank

NEXT
Server Type : POP3
Account name: Gmail

NEXT
Incoming service
"pop.gmail.com:995"

dont check "require SSL connection"

Outgoing server:
"smtp.gmail.com:465"

check outgoing requires auth.

NEXT

Then pick the setting you want
(I have last 3 days)
and "entire message"

Connect auto. and check messages:
again, choose what you want - remember, checking more frequently will eat battery time! (I leave it to NEVER - and check manually myself)


hope this helps -
let me know if you have questions

I tried this, and it still won't let me log in. It keeps going back to the sign in screen and won't even remember my password. And even though I uncheck the SSL on the incoming server, when I look at the settings on it after I've tried to set it up, it's always checked. Any suggestions?

I bet if you search java you will find a way to do just that. I havent tried it yet since I am not exactly technically proficient. But there is a thread about that.
