In order to enable Gmail to fetch your mails from Yahoo or Hotmail, you need to have a premium user account

POP3 is enabled only for premium user accounts in Yahoo and Hotmail

but sify is free and i can download dat thru outlook. so i shud have been able to do dat thru gmail also.

I use Outlook and I am able to download mail from other accs.. using Gmail.

S

are u using a paid version of these services?

No Paid Services. D/W from GAWAB to GMAIL. POP: 995 SMTP: 465
POP: pop.gmail.com
SMTP: smtp.gmail.com

POP is not available in Yahoo and Rediff. Simply goto gmail>Accounts>Add pop acc.

S

how to add the gawab acct. the page shows
"There was a problem connecting to pop.gawab.com Show error details Server returned error: "Connection timed out" whenever i try to add gawab to gmail.also, gawab isnt downloading mail from my other acoounts.

pls give me a complete walkthrough.

I have 5 GMail accts. so in some of them theres xternal access while in some of them its not there. So buddy, i am sorry to say that i can't help you coz. i dont remeber the complete procedure.

I agree wth u. I have used rediff & yahoo in the past but never liked it due to those worst ads which used to run very slow on my dialup $con. But now i have DSL.
