I would suggest...
1. That the OTRS host can indeed reach pop.gmail.com on the needed ports.
2. Even though on the Gmail account you enable POP3 service, Gmail actually uses POP3S on port 995 not POP3 (110). So if you are going to make it work I would say it has to bet set to POP3S on OTRS. Same if you have enabled IMAP on the Gmail account, it will be IMAPS (port 993) on OTRS.
3. Check that you see:
o Mail::POP3Client...............ok (vx.xx )
o IO::Socket::SSL.............ok (vx.xx)
when you run otrs.checkModules. I think that is the perl Module OTRS is using for POP3S.

Subject: Re: [otrs] Help Fetching emails via POP3 or IMAP under Windows
David,
I am having issues with incoming mail in to OTRS. Here is my error message.
OTRS-PMAccount-10
POP3: Can't connect to pop.gmail.com
It was working correctly until we switched our mail to GMail. I logged into the GMail account and all of the messages are there but they are not showing up in OTRS.
I verified my settings in Postmaster Mail Account.
Type: POP3
Username: example@test.com
Password:.................
Host:pop.gmail.com
Trusted:Yes
Dispatching:Dispatching By selected Queue
Queue:Support
Valid:valid
When I select Run Now, it times out. I get the same error if the choose IMAP or POP3S.
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Regards,
Ramsey

Hi Matt,
The instructions included in chapter 7 in the online documentation are pretty inclusive to be honest. There are probably some unofficial ones lurking around on the net if you do a google search.
Are you having any issues with receiving e-mails? I've got it set up under windows myself pretty quickly following the instructions from chapter 7, but if you're having issues I would be more than willing to help.

Are there any step-by-step guides to receiving emails under Windows beyond what is included in Chapter 7 of the admin guide?
Thanks,
