[diabolo]

Pre-Requisites

• GMail account
• x10 Hosting - or any POP-enabled hosting w/SSL encryption(better)

Steps

1. Open up GMail in one browser, and your CPanel in another browser.
2. From GMail go into settings(top-left-hand corner)>Accounts>Get mail from other accounts(third down)>Add another mail account
3. From CPanel go into E-mail Accounts>Under "Current Accounts" find the e-mail you wish to fetch mail from>Configure Mail Client>Manual Settings>locate the information from this: "Mail Server Username" copy it
4. back to GMail, enter in the e-mail address you with to fetch mail from>enter into the username spot, the information you copied from CPanel>enter in your password>leave POP Server alone>change port to 995>you can check which ever ones you want to check, but make sure you use SSL connection when retrieving mail>Add Account
5. Receive an e-mail in your GMail account with the conformation, this also proves that the fetch mail is working, and now you can send mail out using GMail
