smtp (esmtp) problems (

[Gilbert T. Gutierrez, Jr.]

Any standard email client should work fine with GMAIL.

Settings:
POP3: pop.gmail.com
SMTP: smtp.gmail.com
POP3 Port: 995 SSL
SMTP Port: 465 SSL

Username/Account name: full email address
You must send your POP username and password when sending messages with
SMTP.

Make sure that you log into your account through the web and enable POP in
the settings.

tried that.
here's what I got:

telnet smtp.gmail.com 587
Trying 209.85.133.111...
Connected to smtp.gmail.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 mx.google.com ESMTP d19sm5390158and
ehlo
250-mx.google.com at your service, [70.190.60.69]
250-SIZE 28311552
250-8BITMIME
250-STARTTLS
250 ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES

so I set my client to port 587, security TLS and the only authentication
that 
the server claims to support (PLAIN).
got an error back stating that PLAIN was not supported and after repeated 
attempts with all other methods, gave up (none that I have appear to be 
supported).

*sigh*
