Revision as of 15:26, 10 July 2015

You can have your Google Gmail account/service download emails from a Bravenet email account into Gmail.

Login to your Gmail account through Google.
Click on the Options button, a small cog/gear icon in the top right.
Click on Settings from the dropdown.
Click on the Accounts and Import tab from the top.
Click on Add a POP3 mail account you own, under the Check mail from other accounts (using POP3) heading.
Type in the email address you want connected to Gmail, and click Next Step.
Type in the email address (in full) as the username, e.g. Username: example@example.com
Type in the password for the email address.
Type in mail.bravehost.com for the POP Server hostname.
Select port 995 from the dropdown.
Check the Always use a secure connection (SSL) when retrieving mail. option, so the email uses SSL with port 995 (the correct settings).
You may, optionally, check the Leave a copy of retrieved message on the server if you want emails to also reflect in the webmail interface at http://webmail.bravehost.com/.

If you are editing the settings for an account that is already added into you Gmail account, then you would click the edit info button instead of Add a POP3 mail account you own, on step #5.
