XF 1.5 Bounced email set up

Can anyone help setting this up? Do I need to anything more?

You need the host, username and password for the email account you are using for bounce handling.

Its Google Gmail. Would it be my username (the email address) and my password tot that account?

Details are those for Incoming Mail (POP3) Server in that link.

Either way, imap or pop, Xenforo is asking for a host. theres no mention of a host in those details on either selection.

The host is the pop3 server, pop.gmail.com

So I currently have the bounced email set up like so and I received this server error. Is this on my end or an Xenforo issue.
