You don't seem to get it: these peer-to-peer Support Forums are here to help with everything that concerns building webs using the tools, technologies, and techniques that are provided by VodaHost, and are not expected to serve solutions for other providers or 3rd party products!

If you "lost" or don't remember your information for gMail, you need to go to Google to ask them to give you the support you need. If you are having difficulty setting up email that is generated of handled through your VodaHost website, you are in the right place, as you are provided Webmail, Horde, and Squirrel (amongst others) as utilities to process your email, and we can help walk you through many of the bottlenecks you might experience.

You can't have it both ways: you can use Express or Outlook to process your email from your website, or opt to simply log into the online Webmail to retrieve it. Additionally, you can forward your email from your website to your gMail account, but you will need to log into gMail to retrieve it. You need to make up your mind how and where you want your email sent --- you can't "mix" up your gMail with your website email and expect it to be processed properly.

The only way you can retrieve email from different sources (accounts) is to configure Outlook with multiple accounts (one for your website email after you actually create on in your Control Panel; and enter the information for gMail) which will then "poll" each account to deliver all your incoming email in one utility. Is THAT what you want to do?

* Also, it is extrememly helpful to be specific with your challenges, so others can pinpoint a solution based on your exact situation......
