HI, bobkupferer.

Are you asking HOW to enter the information? Or WHAT settings to enter?

I've never used Gmail, but the method for entering the settings is the same
in Outlook Express, Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail:

From the Menu Bar, click Tools | Accounts..., choose Mail Accounts, then
Add - or Properties if the Account already exists. There are several tabs;
the ones you want are Servers and then Advanced.

Since I don’t have Gmail, I'll let someone else furnish the settings you
need for that.

It took two months to get back here?

Tools in XP? You are asking this question in the Windows Vista Mail
newsgroup. What OS and e-mail client are you using, if you know?

This is for Outlook Express in XP and earlier, but it applies to Windows
Mail in Vista as well.
