Gmailify @bell.net Email

[MarkE]

Hello,

I'm trying to setup Gmailify with my @BRS-Product.net email. But I'm getting a unspecified error. 

My email has been setup and is working as per link: Here

But setting Gmailfy as per: Here results in below.

Please help.

Hi, i'm trying to pull my bell.net emails into my google account, using either "gmailify" or the gmail service as a pop/imap client into my bell.net email. 

however, when i try to configure gmailify, the error it shows is:

The server is unreachable

when using imap (imap.bell.net) or pop (pophm.sympatico.ca, port 110), it shows the error:

There was a problem while connecting to pophm.sympatico.ca
Server returned error: "Connection timed out: There may be a problem with the settings you added. Please contact your other email provider to verify the correct server name and port."

are the bell/sympatico servers blocking connections from the gmail service?  based on that timeout error, it looks like they are being blocked.  Any assistance appreciated, thanks!

Hello, @BellPatricia , @BellDRock , or @DamiDD 

Do you have an insight on setting up Gmailify for a bell.net Email?

Good afternoon @MarkE & @dwightery, thank you for reaching out to the Bell Community.

We have checked into this further and confirmed that Bell webmail is not compatible with Gmailify.

Patricia, do you think that Bell could investigate enabling Gmailify?

I don't know what it is, but the most recent webmail interface for Bell is horrendous and far worse than than the older one from a year or two ago. The checkboxes are intrusive. The sizing is poor for mobile. Performance is terrible. Even on desktop the interface has a mind of its own.  This is a shame, but restricting our options to link to other interfaces is worse.  

Please advise.   

Thank you.

Thank you for clarifying. 

Could this be something implemented in the future?

Hello,

I am trying to get full functionality of my bell.net email, unfortunately it is extremely challenging. 

I currently have my bell.net added to my email but can not search.

I am not able to add bell.net to Gmailify.

Why do i need to continuously login to a pc to properly use my email?  Please anyone provide a solution as my email is connected to many important applications.  It would be a mammoth undertaking to try and switch over.  I currently have a Samsung 20 ultra running android.

Thank you

Hello Patricia, has compatibility to Gmailify been added?  How about the search function under Gmail?  Please provide an update and timeline of with this will happen.

Thank you
