| Post subject: | Trouble setting a Gmail account |
Hi, I've had a Freehostia Lovebeat account for many years, I have several email account forwarding mails to my single Gmail account. Some of these Freehostia hosted accounts, Gmail sends emails. However, Gmail have recently changed their policy regarding "Add another email address that you own" to your Google account. Now, instead of them send you an email to confirm that you own the email account, they require you input your: Name Email Address SMTP Server Port Username Password Also the options of TLS or SSL However, I don't seem to be able to get this to work? I used my: name mbox.freehostia.com (port 587) - Google only give the option of 25, 465 or 587 email address (as username) email password However, I only get told by Google that "Couldn't reach server. Please double-check the server and port number." Can anyone help please, this is most annoying as I really want to use Google to send emails from. Many Thanks, Andrew |

Not to worry, I think I've sorted it... |

Tap on your account and make sure you've checked “Sync Gmail.” Clear your Gmail app data. Open your device's Settings app -> Apps & Notifications -> App Info -> Gmail -> Storage -> Clear Data -> Ok. Once you're done with that, restart your device and see if that did the trick. |
