How to add a Google Account to Apple Mail on Mac

The Mail application in macOS resembles most other email clients, giving you a chance to include email accounts from your most loved email supplier so you can send and get email with ease. Obviously, this implies you can get to your Gmail account through Mail, as well. When you use Gmail on your Mac, you can choose whether you get to your online record through IMAP or POP.
IMAP essentially means that Mac Mail will replicate exactly what is on the server, when you delete an email, it will be deleted on the server.
POP only downloads the emails, whatever you do with them afterwards is only reflected on that device.
