It should be noted that this action of the Gmail POP function is not automatic, you need to do manually. Below is the screen that opens this feature in Gmail!
1. Check if Gmail will open POP3 access for you.
First, to log in to Gmail, check if your account has opened POP3 access.
Click Setting after logging in to the account, enter the account setting function interface
If the tab in your configuration menu has only one forwarding, it is very sorry that your account is temporarily unable to enjoy the convenientness of the local send and receive Gmail.
If there is a Forwarding and Pop in the configured tab, then congratulations, your account has opened the POP3 protocol access.
In the above figure, we can see that there are three options for POP3:
The first is how the POP is open or not. The second is how the server-side letters after the POP protocol access. The third is the configuration guidance. Only in the first option to open the POP function, you can access Gmail through the POP3 protocol after properly configured the client software, otherwise there is no permission to be informally.
Gmail setting is quite human, considering that many users have had a long period of time using Gmail, there must be a large number of letters in the mailbox. In order to prevent users from repeating a large number of read mail after the first configuration client, the system specially adds a "Enable Pop Only for Mail That Arrives from now on" rule. That is, after this rule is turned on, all previous mailboxes will be considered a read mail when the mail is accessed, and it is not repeated to receive the local, quite humanized.
If it is safe or other consideration, the user can set the POP function to shut down.
After opening the POP3 function, the nature of the server is determined, and Gmail also gives a more user-friendly option. You can let users customize the email judgment rules after their own will.
After completing the configuration of the account, we will start to configure the mail client software locally. Depending on Gmail's Help Center, Gmail's POP3 configuration is not like the mailbox we usually use, as long as you fill in the POP3 and SMTP addresses. Not only must two protocols must support SSL, but also configured to the specified port.
2, POP3 specific parameter setting
POP3 server address: pop.gmail.com port: 995 support SSL
SMTP server address: SMTP.Gmail.com port: 465 or 587 support SSL (TSL)
The account is the username, the password is the same, the email address is username@gmail.com
