@Paul – I know with gmail you have to go into the options and enable IMAP access... did you do this step already?
Thank you for quick response! I had done enabling the IMAP access before and confirmed that the status is IMAP is enabled.
These are the settings we use for gmail integration...

Do you have a suitable 'authenticationServiceKey' and 'usernameSuffix?'
Is there a way to set certain preferences as only editable by the admin ?
Absolutely! Flag the ones you don't want users to change as <readOnly>true</readOnly>. The portlet will honor that designation by disabling the controls for those preferences.
On uP4 you can do that with the data-import tool. In uP3 there was a way to edit that in the Portlet Manager UI... but I think that feature is currently broken in uP4. I'm sure it will be sorted, though, soon.
Hi,
Even though I followed all of the instruction in this page, I get a error message "ERROR! - Unable to retrieve information from your email account!
Please try again later." after email settings. I set as following, please let me know if I have to do anything further or fix some, thanks.
servername: imap.gmail.com
protocol: imaps
port:993
