Now, for the Harvard-Westlake kids. Everyone hates checking Gaggle, if you do it at all. The site is slow and ugly. Wouldn't it be nice if your email program, such as Outlook Express, checked it automatically for you? And you could send and recieve all the email without having to go to Gaggle.net? Here's how to do it, in no particular order. The order that you'll be asked for this information will be different from program to program. You can figure it out.
In your email program, make a new email account.
Set the incoming server to Pop/Pop3, and set the name of the server to "pop3.gaggle.net" (no quotes). If it has an option for port, just leave it at the default.
Set the outgoing server to SMTP, and set the name to "smtp.gaggle.net" (no quotes). Again, leave the port at whatever the default is.
Your account name for both outgoing and incoming server will be your address. For example, "merrill.nicholas.09@hwstudents.com" (without quotes, in case you're not catching on to that pattern.
Enjoy. Email me with questions.
Note: This is not a "bypass" of the Gaggle system. You're still going through H-W mail, and all the same rules apply. Just because it's in your program, it is not "free of rules." All this does is save you a step by not having to go to Gaggle.net, and nothing else!

oh man, I won a contest with about a picture of MYSELF.
I read that about a million times and still could not make perfect sense of it? Was one of the captions yours?
do i win something? or is this one of those : what? o, you wanted a prize? well, uh...take this pencil, it writes stuff! kinds of things?
You get pride. And ladies love guys who win caption contests on TS.
Compensating much?
Swords scare me. I about had a mental breakdown when Adam and Nick were playing with one at Nick's house.
...and plagerize...the ladies love that...

Subtitles scare me........
If I set the Incoming Server as Pop instead of Pop3, should the mail server still read "pop3.gaggle.net?"
Pop and Pop3 are the same thing, so yes.
