It wouldn't upload the screenshots I have (no surprise there đ€) so I'll have to describe them. On both of my iPhones and my iPad, when I go to OUTGONG MAIL SERVER for the Gmail account, it looks like this:
PRIMARY SERVER
Gmail SMTP Server On >
OTHER SMTP SERVERS
smtp.telus.net On >
Under Gmail SMTP Server, I can move the green slider to turn it off but the Done button is greyed out so I can't make the change permanent.
And on my Android phone, I've tried a half-dozen mail apps and as far as I've been able to figure out, none of them let me configure a different smtp server for Gmail accounts. As soon as I set the IMAP server to imap.gmail.com, Google "takes over" and it sets it up as Gmail, not IMAP.
The only email client I have that can change the smtp server is Thunderbird on my PC.
