I have several gmail addresses that I just got back from being locked out of because of little use. When I get an incoming to these gmail's, and I reply, the reply address is my non-gmail address. I have to click the box and change it to the gmail address before sending. These are on the imap, the ones that work right are pop. What am I missing here? When I first got these addresses, TB set them up, but I can't figure out how to get the right "from" in these emails.

The port for gmail's outgoing smtp.gmail.com is 587 for STARTTLS security or 465 for SSL/TLS. Let the setup wizard apply the correct settings - you just need to choose POP or IMAP.
