2.0 gmail
Everytime I try to set up a gmail account it does this to me....
(I enabled the imap on in gmail as a start)
"the imap server "imap.gmail.com" is not responding. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the "incomingmail server" field."
when i enter all the setting i also get a error message saying;
"Cannot connect to ssl"
do you wish to set up the account without SSL? (YES OR NO)

If you just jailbroke the phone and can not get your email to work, try rejailbreaking the phone, but when you first connect the phone set the phone up as a "new" phone instead of recovering from a backup.

go into gmail and change your password. im guessing gmail requires a minimum of 8 characters now.

It worked before I upgraded to 2.0
followed this and it went ok until It asked to use ssl. Yes/No the problem is that after that it fails either way
