Can someone help me figure out how to set up yahoo and gmail? I've set up my account on gmail to enable pop and forwarding, but I still can't figure out how to get it to properly alert my bunny sad Help me!!

Re: Gmail and Yahoo accounts

I don't think you can do Yahoo if you have a free email account with them.    For gmail, this might help you:

Re: Gmail and Yahoo accounts

Has anyone tried out the yahoo plus account with nabaztag/tag? Because I'd spend the twenty bucks to get it to work tongue

Re: Gmail and Yahoo accounts

k I bought the yahoo plus account and it worked for about five minutes and now it just says that I have 3+ messages. idk I think it might have something to do with the new yahoo layout. I'm going to try to switch back and see what happens.

Re: Gmail and Yahoo accounts

k Figured it out. Yahoo Mail Plus works; you just have to put all of your mail into a different folder after you've read it. Only problem is that the audio alert doesn't work with it. Not sure why, but it doesn't sad

Re: Gmail and Yahoo accounts

Aside from the first 30 mins after setting my gmail account up, it's been telling me I have more 3 or more mails - highly frustrating, but at least I haven't been getting the repeating alert (much).

As for setting up your gmail, try this (if you haven't already got it!):

Go to gmail, then to "Settings" -> "Forwarding and POP"

In the second half, enable POP Download (for whichever setting - I chose 'mail that arrives from now on'). Press 'Save Changes' and then reload your setting page to make sure it now says "Status: POP is enabled".

Then on my.nabaztag.com under the Email Alert service, use the following information:
Incoming mail server: pop.gmail.com
Protocol: SSL
Account Name: <your_login>@gmail.com
Password: <your_password>

..then chose the options you want!

Hope this helps :o)

Can you tell us how you have setup the Gmail account?

Re: Gmail and Yahoo accounts

Oh I just gave up on the gmail account; besides, I use my yahoo account for my more important emails (college/school, work-related)

Re: Gmail and Yahoo accounts

I don't know why but gmail is working for me:

Incoming mail server : pop.gmail.com

Protocol: SSL

Account name: username@gmail.com

That's all i had to enter and it worked straight away.
