[nabs-l] Braillenote email w/Gmail

[Greg Aikens]

Hi Patrick,
I recently did this with an Apex and it was not difficult once I found the information I needed from google, such as the name of the servers for sending and receiving mail and their respective port numbers.  This page contains the information you need from google:
http://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=13287

As for setting up the account on the Apex, I do not remember the exact steps.  In Keymail, you want the settings menu and there should be an option to add an account.  The braille note manual has a helpful section on how to fill out the boxes on the account setup page.  It should tell you how to put the info from the link above into your braille note.  

The downside to using Keymail, as I understand it, is that it does not support imap.  What that means is that , it does not sync with your gmail account, but only downloads messages from the server.  So, if you deleted a message on your braille note, it would not automatically delete it from the server etc.  As far as I can tell Keymail doesn't support imap.  Does anyone else know different?
