MS Office Forum / Outlook / New Users / November 2005Moving Gmail Acct to Outlook? Passes Test but won't work Why/Fix?
I have followed the directions on the gmail page on moving my acct to outlook. It passes the test and yet does not work. What gives? How do I fix? Is this some weirdness between google and microsoft. Any suggestions? Help! Could you be a little more specific? What doesn't work? Does it send? Doesn't receive? Do you get any error messages? What version of Outlook?  SignatureAloha, -Ben- Ben M.

Outlook will receive my messages from Gmail but will not send. I am not at that computer now, but I seem to recall that the message has something to do with timing out and security of the message. I need to be at home on the laptop to give it to you fully. I can do that tonight when I get home. My apologies for the lack of specifics. Ms B > Could you be a little more specific?

O.K. make sure that you go into "More Settings" and on the Outgoing Server tab check the "My outgoing server requires authentication" box. Have it use the same settings as the incoming server.

In addition, ensure you have the option checked that the connection requires encryption on the advanced tab of your gmail account settings.
