How do I setup my email in SageMC? I can't find any options to input my settings?

Email is configured in the file mailaccounts.xml in your SageTV directory, and pretty self-explanatory. You have to restart the UI to pick up any changes.

I tried to configure it, but it doesn't seem to be working. Has anyone set it up successfully with gmail?

I'm using it with gmail. Post your configuration file (blank out email address and password)...

Anything look wrong?

For the user name drop the @gmail.com

And set the correct protocol for gmail:

Change

<!--
<void property="protocol">
<string>pop3</string>
</void>
-->

to

<void property="protocol">
<string>pop3s</string>
</void>

Has anyone been able to make @email to work with IMAP and Gmail?

I keep getting error that it is unable to connect.

Here is what it says in the errorlog file:
2008-04-15 22:42:25,127 ERROR [AWT-EventQueue-0] nl.cmkprojects.sage.mail.MailCheck (MailCheck.java:256) - failed
javax.mail.MessagingException: Connect failed;

Here is my config file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<java version="1.4.2_04" class="java.beans.XMLDecoder">

<object class="nl.cmkprojects.sage.mail.MailAccount">

<!-- pop3 host, e.g. pop.zonnet.nl -->

<void property="password">

</void>

<void property="username">

</void>

<!-- Fetch only headers, does not mark the email on the server as 'read' -->

<!--
<void property="port">

</void>
-->

</object>

</java>

Here is what Gmail says:

Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - requires SSL: imap.gmail.com
Use SSL: Yes
Port: 993
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - requires TLS: smtp.gmail.com (use authentication)
Use Authentication: Yes
Use STARTTLS: Yes (some clients call this SSL)
Port: 465 or 587
Account Name: your Gmail username (including @gmail.com)
Email Address: your full Gmail email address (username@gmail.com)
Password: your Gmail password

Thanks in advance,
Andrew

I don't think this plugin will do a ssl connection.

If I dont plan on using email, how can I remove this from the menu?

Right-click or hit the Options button on your remote. Main Menu Options-Edit Menu Item-Delete. After you delete go back to Main Menu Options-File-Save Menu File.

Worked like a charm, Thanks.
