Unspecific Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Yeah. I was really very interested in using Google Apps, but was a little peeved when I realised that It wouldn't work! Nothing stops you from finding another dedicated MAIL host though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a dedicated server only for my site and whmcs, I could totally use it, but still keep loving gmail hosted.. lol I just read that they do make backups from IMAP servers.. maybe IMAP fully support is coming! Maybeeee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unspecific Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Eureka! GMail has gained IMAP support, one of the most requested features for Google's web-based e-mail service. More than storage space or other features, free web-based IMAP access pushes GMail over the top when compared to offerings from Yahoo, Microsoft and most other web-based e-mail services. http://blog.wired.com/monkeybites/2007/10/google-adds-ima.html 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

visualfast Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 well i try to configure WHMCS with google apps i create subdomain and create piping here in whmcs but seems to be not working just one time i received ticket creation email and then i try to send again and seems to be not working any one got luck with whmcs with google apps? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
railto Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 I agree with both MACsacr and Uberhost (wow my head is spinning saying that) I use google apps for the calendar, googletalk and google docs, i thought about using gmail but realised that whmcs would propbably not work for piping and also that i would only be using gmail for the pretty interface. I think its a bad sign for companies using an email service other than what they run themselves as it shows that they dont trust their own servers to handle mail 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juanzo Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 I've asked Google Apps support and they said it could be done and pointed me here. I've read that and there's nothing that might be able to pipe the email but I'm not sure. Can someone confirm this please? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aushosts Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Why can't you pop it like a regular POP3 account in whmcs? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juanzo Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 You mean using the POP3 import method? If yes, then I have 2 questions: 1. Does someone else use this succesfully with Google Apps? 2. Running that cron every 5 min for 3 accounts wouldn't have an impact on server's load? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Running that cron every 5 min for 3 accounts wouldn't have an impact on server's load? Yes - Google Apps comes with POP3 and IMAP; shouldn't be an issue. Running the cron job every 5 or even every 1 min shouldn't have any impact on the server... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
columbusgeek Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I am working on setting this up tonight and have not had the best luck, but will get it eventually I am sure. I am kind of amazed some of you guys/girls do not recognize the potential of using Google apps. First of all, the biggest misconception here is your email will not end in emailuser@gmail.com, it will end in the companies domain name you setup. I have completely moved over all of my clients over the past 2 months and find gmail backend to be the absolute best at mail on the planet right now. the additional applications such as docs and the usefulness of allowing them to collaborate is huge. Nobody knows, nor cares if the mail is routed through my servers or not. To be blunt, it is better it is not as it takes a huge load off of them, and dumps it onto Google, who has hundreds of thousands of local mirrors and data centers that can handle my clients needs far better then I ever could, even if I owned my own datacenter. It's really quite brilliant when you sign up and play with it some. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juanzo Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Yes, they did. But I wouldn't mind paying since I agree that Google Apps is awesome. Can anyone confirm that you can't route the mail directly with the pay version? At least I'd love to hear people that can confirm using the POP3 import cron. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHMCS CEO Matt Posted March 19, 2008 WHMCS CEO Share Posted March 19, 2008 The POP import method won't currently work with Google Mail but I have just implemented some changes which will mean it will be possible to import emails from Gmail in the next update.

columbusgeek Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Groovy. I got it to work but I had to use a subdomain and lots of silly workarounds. I'd rather do it right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leisegang Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 here is a solution. if you get this as a response on the cron mail: POP Import LogDate: 21/04/2008 14:40:01Host: pop.gmail.comEmail: support@domain.comAn Error Occured: Can't connect to gmail-pop.l.google.com,995: Connection timed out then you must open Egress TCP port 995 Common egress (outbound) TCP ports The FAQ section in the Cpanel website suggests the following ports: 21, 25, 26, 37, 43, 53, 80, 113, 465, 873, 2089, 3306 (873 and 2089 are supposidely used for the cpanel update script) For a more complete list of ports and services located on them, check your '/etc/services' file. Example only to show. the should be more ports added here. # Common egress (outbound) TCP ports EG_TCP_CPORTS="22,80,443,995" let me know if this works 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leisegang Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 i can elaborate a bit... first of all you should check if the APF firewall is installed. if it isnt then thats not the problem configure the firewall: pico /etc/apf/conf.apf Other Details: Listening TCP ports: 1,21,22,25,53,80,110,111,143,443,465,993,995,2082,2083,2086,2087,2095,2096,3306 Listening UDP ports: 53,55880 Note: These ports are not auto-configured; they are simply presented for information purposes. You must manually configure all port options. for use on cpanel servers: Common ingress (inbound) ports # Common ingress (inbound) TCP ports -3000_3500 = passive port range for Pure FTPD IG_TCP_CPORTS="21,22,25,53,80,110,143,443,2082,2083, 2086,2087, 2095, 2096,3000_3500" # # Common ingress (inbound) UDP ports IG_UDP_CPORTS="53" Common egress (outbound) ports # Egress filtering [0 = Disabled / 1 = Enabled] EGF="1" # Common egress (outbound) TCP ports EG_TCP_CPORTS="21,25,80,443,43,2089" # # Common egress (outbound) UDP ports EG_UDP_CPORTS="20,21,53" i just copied from other sites... this one is a good one: http://www.webhostgear.com/61.html 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
