[nabs-l] Setting up gmail account on iPhone 5?

[Kaiti Shelton]

Hi all,

Valerie is right.  I have the built-in mail app and the gmail app on
my phone and like the one that comes standard much better.  Set up is
pretty straight forward to; I believe when you first enter the mail
app it gives you options for choosing your mail provider and the
appropriate server information and Gmail is one of them.

Justin: Yes, just use Imap instead of pop for your incoming server
type when setting up your email.  This should allow you to have your
email account show the same across all your devices including your
IPhone, a tablet such as an IPad or Android tablet if you have one,
and any PCs with web application or email programs such as Outlook or
Thunderbird.
