• Gmail's Mail Fetcher supports only the POP3 protocol; it does not support IMAP. Therefore, any action taken on a message will not be reflected if you access your account from a different email client. For example, if you were to read or delete a message from within Gmail, the message will still appear as unread in another email client program. For more information about the differences between IMAP and POP3, refer to email protocols IMAP and POP3.

• Any time after you have added your POP3 account to Gmail, you can modify the all settings except the actual email address.

• If you need assistance in configuring your email account, contact the Nexcess Support Team. If you currently do not have a client configured for use with your email account, log in to your SiteWorx account and click Hosting Features > Email > Webmail.

• An existing Gmail account.

• Login information for the email account that you want to use with the email client. If you do not yet have a configured email account, refer to Creating a new email account.

• The POP3 configuration settings and the mail server information provided in your Nexcess Welcome Email.
