why when setting up gmail account, do I get a message "error Incoming server already exists."? It seems since updating to TB 91.7.0 (32-bit) one of my gmail accounts stopped getting emails, I still get them on my smart phone and on an older pc that has TB 78.14.0 (32-bit) but not on my primary pc. so since the primary was set to pop and the older pc was imap I tried switching it to imap but couldn't so I deleted the account and reset it up but after entering everything I keep getting that error! TIA Tom

Now that YOU explained it so a novice like myself can understand it I found the SMTP servers however the list does NOT appear to show one that belongs to the gmail account I'm trying to add.

The best guidance I can give is to ensure one smtp server for each account and be sure to not 'name' any two the same. If you're adding a new account, you need to add another smtp server so that the number of smtp servers matches the number of accounts. Good luck.
