Settings for GMAIL ( Google Mail ) in a N70 device:

Incoming: pop.googlemail.com

Outgoing: smtp.gmail.com

Do NOT USE smtp.youremailaddress.com

Select: security ports 993/995.

The above settings will bypass the annoying the Google certificate warnings!!!!!!

Furthermore after successfully setting up your account a wise man should do the following:

Change your pop options, under account settings in the original Gmail account (from the PC/Laptop) to Not archive after checking mail so that it doesn’t delete all the emails from your inbox (on phone) once it updates at your specified time.
