Can you not just download the summary emails to a client and get them to PT from there? If not just open a random one (my ASDL provider gives me unlimited email addresses, check yours to see how many you get)
POP3 is an email protocol that deals with receiving email. It's pretty standard afaik - just use your normal email address.

EDIT: That's to say 'Why do you need to open a new one?'

no i have yahoo mail and pt wont extract the emails for me and i play 50 or so sng's a day so doing it manually isnt an option. with pop3 you can set pt to import them from pop3 automaticaly. i just have no clue how to set up pop3.

The server name is pop.gmail.com (second page linked)

EDIT: Going to sleep now but try to follow the steps in the second link given it's for Outlook. GL if you can't do it bump this tomorrow or pm me or something
