gMail account fails in Outlook 2003
These used to work. But I had to start over and create new email accounts in a new installation of Outlook 2003. Now they always fail Receiving. I have the servers named pop3.gmail.com & smtp.gmail.com. Not checked: log on using SPA. User Name for logon is my full email address. Outgoing Server is checked SMTP requires authentication & is marked just below that on Use Same Settings As Incoming. Advanced Incoming POP3 is 995 & checked SSL. Outgoing SMTP is 465 & checked SSL. It fails on Receiving when I test and when I Send/Receive.1 person got this answerI do too

The incoming mail server name should be pop.gmail.com. For details, please see the Outlook 2003 page in Gmail Help .Boulder Computer Maven Microsoft Most Valuable Professional
