On my 920 when composing an email there was always an option at bottom to search server for the address on a gmail account, it's missing on the 1020.

I am not sure if it's because I restored my account or what but I wanted to find out if anyone had the same issue or solved it.

thanks..

Its because google doesn't support exchange ActiveSync anymore and uses their own protocol. Old accounts were able to still connect as configured but any new accounts went with their new system. Could always switch to outlook.com which still has that functionality. :)

Wait. What did you do jmoney? I am upset I can no longer sync "as items arrive." I was able to on my 920 but now it only does it every 15 min for my Gmail which is lame.i think it is linked to your issue aka google screwing us

when you add your email account, don't choose Google. Choose Outlook (outlook.com,exchange, office 365) instead. First just enter your email address and pw, it will fail. Then you can enter domain "google", it will fail again. Click advanced, then enter server name "m.google.com". See What Are the Gmail Exchange ActiveSync Settings? - About Email for settings.

Nice! I thought google had blocked us off completely. One issue though, I am unable to get my multiple calendars from gmail this way :(
