Timeout connecting to gmail

[Vincent Finn]

Hi,

I am trying to connect to gmail and can't get it to work.
I have tried from 2 machines both of which can connect I use Thunderbird (so no firewall issue etc).

All I get a time out, is there a way of getting logging so i could see what is wrong.

I am using Visual Studio 2005.

The code is just
ImapConnect connection = new ImapConnect("imap.gmail.com", 993);
connection.Open();

    Thanks, Vin

Currently there is no mode to enable logging but that would not be a bad idea. Generally I test in debug mode but i think adding logging to the read/write methods could be useful in tracking down issues. Your welcome to add that if you want.

also on a another note 993 is TLS which at this point is unsupported in this client I would do it but i don't have the first idea on where to begin at this point

[Vincent Finn]

OK, if its not supported that make sense.
I was just wondering if I was doing something stupid.

Thanks, Vin

Not that I am expert or anything but here is a library that support TLS.

I think it is working in the latest release but I haven't done much testing with regard to gmail.

Yep, that fixes the connection problem.

Thanks, Vin
