POP3 connection string for livemail or gmail? -

I have third-party applications for which 'POP3 connection string' is required, I never got such a thing, But apparently something looks like this:

  line 314; Connection string: {pop3.live.com:995/pop3/ssl}INBOX  

or

  {outlook.XXXXXXXX.net:993/imap/ Ssl / novalidate-cert} INBOX  

The problem is that I can not seem to create a connection string for some mail or Gmail.

The application - (which is trying to connect to a POP3 account to process email bounces) - just gives an error.

I can not find any documents anywhere about the POP3 connection strings. I think it should be some kind of standard

The technical support for the product in question asked, "Ask Microsoft for a connection string for Windows Live Mail". I do not think the cost of trying to ask about it - but hopefully someone can give some light on this issue.

Perhaps a POP3 connection test tool would also be useful?

A POP URL generic form Is:

pop: // < User & gt ;; Auth = & lt; Auth & gt; @ & Lt; Host & gt ;: & lt; Monkey & gt;

About Gmail for Gmail ... this is not easy; Maybe the code can help in the example; Code is a note that says:

  / * * Access Gmail POP account * / / * $ message_file = 'pop3: //'.$user.': '. $ Password. '@ Pop.gmail.com:995/1?tls=1&debug=1&html_debug=1'; * /  

With some luck, maybe something similar can work in your application too?
