I would like to experiment the balsa email client with a GMail account,

clear to me how to fill the wizard dialogs with entries appropriate for
GMail.

Any help is welcome.

I use IMAP to manage my GMail accounts. It's not very satisfactory, as their 
implementation of the IMAP protocol seems slow and perhaps incomplete. If you 
would like to try it, here's what I suggest for a start:

Name of mail server: imap.gmail.com
Type of mail server: IMAP
Connection security: SSL
Your email login name: Your GMail address
Your password: I believe you will need to get an "application password" from 
Google

Others may use different settings--this is just what I have found to work.

HTH!

Peter
