iPod touch Please Help! Can't Access Mail on IPod Touch

[Jane113]

Hello, I have the 1.1.4 version and I cannot access my GMail or my AOL mail accounts. I can get to them when I go through Safari but I cannot get to them when I go through the Mail app. Whenever I try get to my Gmail account, it would say "Cannot Connect Using SSL- Do you want to try setting up the account without SSL?" I then choose "Yes" and it would say "Gmail account verification failed". I also get the same message when I try getting into my AOL Mail. I have IMAP enabled and am using a PC to access my mail.
Can anyone please help me with this? It's driving me up the walls.

Use FIRST your gmail account with an EMAIL CLIENT!!!

Hi My Friend!!!!

I had the same problem with the account of my wife and after thinking a lot about it, I realized that you have to "activate" yor POP access with a client mail software like OUTLOOK.

After I did the "Enable POP access" in Gmail settings, I configure it (my wife account) in her outlook, in her windows profile.... FRESCO!!!

Later, I configure his gemail account in her Ipod Touch flawlessly!!!!!


I hope this help you!!!
