reading and sending mail POP3

Hello

 

I am trying to run the pop3client example.

what does the input needs to be in order to use my regular gmail account mail (an account that ends with @gmail.com) i tried pop.gmail.com 

 

when i enter my user name does it need to end with @gmail.com or not.

In order to figure how to  Send Mail , the sendmail example doesn't work (it has no login input).

 

Best regards

Ido.

Hey Ido,

 

I believe the username should be without @gmail.com. I would also double check that you have changed your Gmail settings to allow CVI to read your Gmail messages via POP. I've included a link below which outlines how to change these settings.
