Jornada 720: All steps to get gmail IMAP working on the jornada ?

Hello,

Everybody knows gmail and IMAP, this is for the emails. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Message_Access_Protocol

One has a good steps to achieve it to be working from first the gmail account side and the jornada 720 side, wince 3.0 ? If there is screenshot, that would be even better for persons that are not used with computers.

Thank you if already it exists this howto and good evening all !

gmail is secure mail so I suggest you will need qmail3, ssl (download from qmail site) and security certs.

Yeah, you need those security certificates but where can you get them? Once you have them you combine them into a file of PEM-Format and save them in "<your mail folder>\ca.pem"

That's for the theory, I don't know where to download the certificates or how to convert them to PEM. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I finally could find qmail here for arm

no, use qmail3 please

or npop UK

So did anybody get GMail and QMail to like each other? I still get that "Failed to initialize SSL"-error. (I'm trying to access it via POP3 but it should be the same for IMAP). Whatever, I think I made some progress, though:

snak said that you need the root certificates in PEM-format and you have to put them in <your mail folder>\security\ca.pem

I read somewhere that you need the ThawteServerCA for GMail. You can get that certificate here:

I did what snak told me but it didn't work for me so far.

bam. Correct ca.pem file. GMail works with this (send & receive).

Howto (for POP3-access, I bet it's similar for IMAP):
- Put the file posted above into <your mail folder>\security- POP3-Server for GMAIL: pop.gmail.com
Port: 995
SSL-Type: SSL
- SMTP-Server: smtp.gmail.com
Port 587
SSL-Type: STARTTLS
- authenticate outgoing mail: yes

All credits go to snak for posting that file.

It sounds great really what you posted !
btw, I still have to find this qmail3, if in any cases you know where you could download it.

I wish you lot of success with the Gmail embedded in Jornada 720 !
Greetings !

You can get QMail3 at snak's site:

www.q3.snak.org/en
(Download / Old Versions)

Thank you, khe

I dwlded it, started exe file, and it asked "Mail Folder" Browse ... oups. Where may it be located in the windows CE3.0 ?

You can choose where it should be located. You can put your mail folder anywhere on your device.

Can anybody post or send the DLLs required for the SSL to work??? I seem to have to luck with the non-latin letters :-(

Here are the ssl files
