My BrailleNote Apex somehow lost my Gmail account information. Could someone tell me what to do to set it up again? Any help is appreciated.

do you want to set it up for imap or pop3?
also, do you need the server info, or do you need actual commands from a BrailleNote user?

I just found the info I needed on BrailleNoteUsers.info. I stumbled across that site while searching for something else. It's more helpful than the user guide. The server info is what I needed.

I personally don't even bother trying to access my Gmail account from the BrailleNote because I could not find the form fields to write in my log in information. I can't believe I didn't think of saving it and setting it up with the Email feature though, instead of trying from the Gmail site. If I have a desire and need to I will, but I don't see much of a point since I all ready can from my computer IPhone and IPod touch.

Hi
I also do not prefer usiing keymail because of the way they have it, pop3. I rally think that imap would be a better option. I have three devices, a pc, android, and bn. I have imap on my phone and do my gmail on my computer via internet. with so many devices out today, its important for efficient work and organization to be able to have them all sinc. So, having pop3 email wi2ll create a copy of that email, satisfying for reading ofline, however not satisfying for sinc. So, my strategy is to send mail using keymail and receive it using the gmail website. However signing in to the site is quite difficult if not impossible without the gmail html page. This should, hopefully be fixed in ks 9.3. And btw, for the person who said they have trouble finding the -pose forms, are you takiing advantage of gmails basic html? Then all you have to do is do a search for the word to

P.S. pop server: pop.gmail.com (same with smtp except change pop to smtp
pop port: 995
smtp port: 465
Answer yes to secure connection and authentication stuff
