Mozilla Thunderbird v.3.1.7
I am trying to setup Gmail, but none of the settings are working. I have tried every resource:
Blogs, tutorials
Instructions by Google
Instructions by Thunderbird
Questions here
But, still its not working.
My settings are as follows
Server Settings
Server Type: IMAP Mail server
Server Name: imap.gmail.com
Username:
[email protected]
Port: 993
Default: 993
Connection Security: SSL/TLS
Authentication method: Encrypted password
Outgoing server (SMTP)
Server Name: smtp.gmail.com
Port: 587
Default: 25
Connection Security: STARTTLS
Authentication method: Encrypted password
Username:
[email protected]
IMAP is enabled in my Gmail settings.
ERROR: Connection to the server
[email protected] timed out.
I am behind a proxy server and I have configured those settings under:
Thunderbird Preferences - Advanced - Network and Disk Space - Connection Settings - Manual Proxy Configuration
The proxy configuration works, as when I created a Blogs and News feeds a/c, it was working properly and fetching the feeds for me. So, Thunderbird is configured properly as per the proxy settings.
Help me.
