Connection Timed Out

[mijttt]

I tried to add email account in Gmail but there is an error of connection timed out at mail.mydomain.com

What should I do to resolve this?

POP3 is port 995 when you are using a secure connection. You are attempting to use port 110. @mijttt

Also it may function better if you use the underlying MXroute server name rather than mail.yourdomain.tld.

mail.domain.tld will function fine, providing that @mijttt has configured a CNAME record for it in his domain’s DNS, and he’s issued an SSL certificate via cPanel/DirectAdmin.

In some cases this might not be true. Recent reports of Gmail not supporting SNI through POP3 import / SMTP setup have popped up.
