I am trying to add an email account to gmail in order to send/
receive
email through my gmail acocunt. When I add the email address in gmail
acount settings, I get a screen that says gmail sent a confirmation
email to my other email address with a verification code. The problem
is that no email from gmail with a verification code is ever
received.
So with no verification code, I can't verify that I own the other
email account. And since I can't verfiy the account is mine, gmail
won't let me send emails from that address through my gmail account.
I
would really like to get this resolved, but have exhausted all
options. Please help!

Did you check your spam/junk folders on the other account? It's
possible the confirmation e-mail got caught there.

Very Strange... Are you sure you typed the Mail ID correctly? Cause, Personally I have five IDs "attached" to this one.

Come to think of it, it could be a problem with the new interface, have u tried switching to Old version an then sending the verification? Try that too.
