For incoming and outgoing mail servers, enter "imap.gmail.com" and "smtp.gmail.com" respectively. Then, enter your Gmail username and password and click on More Settings. Under the Outgoing Server tab, check the box for "My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication" and select "Use same settings as my incoming mail server." Under the Advanced tab, enter "993" for the Incoming server (IMAP) port and "587" for the Outgoing server (SMTP) port. Choose SSL for both and click OK.
