Has anyone been able to resolve this issue?

I also have the same problem. Tim you and Tyler both sent me some things to try back in July. I had some personal issues to deal with so I did not get around to testing at that time. Today, I finally had a chance to test. The last thing that Tyler asked me to test was installing Hal on another PC. I have tried to download email from a gmail account from another PC with a trial version of Hal installed. I have tried it on two different internet providers and the Hal Internet Server hangs. I can open a telnet session to pop.gmail.com on port 465 on the PC so I know I can communicate to the pop server. I can also use the same POP settings in Outlook and successfully retrieve email using pop. I have verified that the gmail account has POP enable for all mail and that the allow access to less secure apps is enabled. For testing I also disabled the firewall.

I am running Windows 10 and Hal version 6.1.32
