Hi,

Since few month and with previous version (I do not remember the version), Fetch works fine with Gmail account in secure Pop3 from port 995.
Today with 6.x-1.8 version I see that the fetch function doesn't work.
In administration menu, when I click on Fetch link, I have:

Fetching mail for test...
Failed to download messages for test, connection to mail server failed.
warning: imap_open() [function.imap-open]: Couldn't open stream {pop.gmail.com:995/pop3/ssl/novalidate-cert}INBOX in /myserver/public_html/sites/mysite/modules/support/support.module on line 2998.
Mail server connection failure: connect({pop.gmail.com:995/pop3/ssl/novalidate-cert}INBOX), username(email@gmail.com), password(xxx)
Imap error: Can't connect to gmail-pop.l.google.com,995: Connection timed out for user email@gmail.com
Imap error: Can't connect to gmail-pop.l.google.com,995: Connection timed out for user email@gmail.com

Could you help me? Thanks!

I don't remember any changes in that area of the code. Is it possible you've made firewall changes affecting your ability to communicate on port 995? Does it work with other settings?

You have to turn on the less secure applications login at https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps
