After much headache, I managed to get my telus email migrated to gmail and set up using pop3. Been using it for a couple weeks now. All of a sudden, it gives me one of two errors:

1) Server timed out (if I try port 465)
2) Keeps asking me for my password (port 587) but says it's not correct even though I can log into my gmail account (telus webmail) using that password.
I've found both those ports as options for pop setup on gmail. I had 587 originally.

Is there some setting I'm missing?
I had had to change my password as I got confused as to which google account I was using. This is using the Corporate Telus one, not my personal one. I think that's correct? I'm not even sure anymore which one I was supposed to be using.

I'm using Thunderbird email.
