The page I was looking at is somewhat ambiguous: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=13287&hl=en_GB It says googlemail, but I changed to gmail. It says STARTTLS, which is allegedly sometimes called SSL. Kmail, when I do a 'check what server supports', returns SSL. No matter. I changed to your settings and sending works. It always worked. I ticked pop in the gmail settings and downloaded my emails. My emails showed up, like before. Then I sent myself another one, and we're back at square 1 - it won't download. Like before. When I log in and set the pop settings again, they download, and then the next ones I send myself won't until I log in to gmail and reset the pop settings. Got any more ideas? How come I can receive the first batch after I reset gmail to pop, but no further downloads without logging in and setting it all over again? It's like it forgets my setting as soon as I have done a download. -- Peter Gückel -- http://www3.telus.net/pg56cgy GnuPG/PGP Key: 0x1C204BED
