You're looking for information on how to set up and use Gmail on Windows Live Mail in 2019. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you get started:

Prerequisites:

  1. You have a Gmail account (if you don't, create one).
  2. You have Windows Live Mail 2011 or 2012 installed on your computer.
  3. You have a stable internet connection.

Setting up Gmail on Windows Live Mail:

  1. Launch Windows Live Mail: Open Windows Live Mail on your computer.
  2. Create a new email account: Click on "Email" in the top menu bar and select "Add a new email account".
  3. Choose the account type: Select "POP" as the account type.
  4. Enter your Gmail account details: Fill in the following information:
    • Email address: Your Gmail address (e.g., [yourname]@gmail.com).
    • Username: Your Gmail address (e.g., [yourname]@gmail.com).
    • Password: Your Gmail password.
    • POP server: pop.gmail.com (port 995).
    • SMTP server: smtp.gmail.com (port 587).
  5. Click "Next": Click on the "Next" button to proceed.
  6. Set up the account: Windows Live Mail will attempt to set up your Gmail account. If prompted, enter your Gmail password again to confirm.
  7. Configure the account settings: You may need to configure some additional settings, such as the "Incoming mail server" and "Outgoing mail server" settings. Make sure to use the same settings as above.

Tips and considerations:

  1. IMAP vs. POP: If you prefer to use IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) instead of POP, you can do so by selecting "IMAP" as the account type in step 3. However, keep in mind that IMAP may not work as seamlessly with Windows Live Mail as POP does.
  2. Two-factor authentication: If you have two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled on your Gmail account, you may need to generate an App Password to use with Windows Live Mail. You can find more information on generating App Passwords in the Gmail Help Center.
  3. Syncing issues: If you encounter syncing issues between your Gmail account and Windows Live Mail, try restarting the Windows Live Mail application or checking your internet connection.

By following these steps, you should be able to set up your Gmail account on Windows Live Mail and start using it to send and receive emails.
