Default Gmail & Outlook Issue (- HELP PLEASE-)

Hello everybody!

I'm experiencing a problem to retrieve email from Gmail on Microsoft Outlook
2002.

I set everything the way Gmail recomends it... turning on the SSL
authentication for both SMTP and POP3 servers.. using ports 995 and 465
(respectively)... activating the SMTP verification for outgoing mail and
when I push on the "Test Account Settings" everything is alright: it finds
the outgoing mail server, the incoming mail server, it logs onto the
incoming mail server BUT (huge big) it's unable to send a test message
e-mail... How is that possible ??? It sends the following error message:

"Send test e-mail message: Unable to send test Message. Please verify the
E-mail Address field"

When check the E-mail address specified in the account settings window
everything is alright...spelling, case, everything is there... but it keeps
saying that it cannot send that test message... I've already tried deleting
the E-mail address and recreating the whole stuff -in case it would be a
problem of corrupted configuration... It doesn't change anything..

Could it be linked to the fact that my gmail email address contains a dot ?
Does it come from gmail ? Heeelp!!!

Thanks in advance,

FRSNK
