This usually means one of the two things:

#1: you don't have correct address and port setup, for Gmail it should be:

POP3 host: pop.gmail.com
POP3 port: 995
TLS Protocol: ON
POP3 username: your full email address
POP3 password: your Google apps password

- OR -

#2: your server (firewall) is blocking port 995, check with your hosting company.

Also important:

Make 100% sure that "POP3 download" in your Google settings is set to "Enable POP for mail that arrives from now on"

Otherwise Google will send all existing/read messages to HESK when it first connects.
