You can use any POP3 server. You need to set the config xml file to point to that server.

I successfully installed the service, and am not recieving any "issues."  Anything obvious?     <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> - <settings> - <General>   <add key="GeminiURL" value="http://gemini.xxxxx.com/" />   <add key="WebServicesCode" value="ABC123" />   <add key="CheckEverySecs" value="60" />   </General> - <WatchProjects> - <Project>   <add key="ProjectID" value="13" />   <add key="UserID" value="9" />   <add key="ComponentID" value="94" />   <add key="IssueType" value="1" />   <add key="IssuePriority" value="1" />   <add key="EmailServer" value="pop.gmail.com" />   <add key="EmailServerPort" value="995" />   <add key="UseAPOP" value="false" />   <add key="EmailAddress" value="xxxxxx@gmail.com" />   <add key="EmailUserName" value="xxxxx@gmail.com" />   <add key="EmailPassword" value="xxxxxx" />   <add key="DeleteMessages" value="false" />   <add key="SubjectLikeRegExp" value="" />   <add key="SubjectNOTLikeRegExp" value="" />   </Project>   </WatchProjects>   </settings>   This is a link to Gmail's pop settings: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=13287  

Please check the windows application event log for errors. All errors will be logged there.

Also, make sure the web services access code is correct.

I found the Gemini SMTP service stopped and started successfully, and two of these errors. 

And I already had verified that the Web Service code was the same.

I see, it might be an authentication issue.

Try setting APOP to true. in the config file. Howver, we will try to get it working from our side using gmail and get back to you.

Also, make sure you have enabled POP for your gmail account: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=13273

I had turned on POP for Gmail, and double checked it just now.

I added "true" to the APOP setting in the XML file.

I stopped and restarted the service.  I checked the application log:

It showed that I had stopped the service and started the service - and right after those entries:

Event Type: Error

Ok, it seems like gmail requires SSL connection, which is not currently supported by the mailbox processor.
