I found the answer to our problems...!!!!!

I researched in the Microsoft knowledge base ( I should have done it
before).. I used the last error server code I was getting: 0x80042100B and
they recommend to install Microsoft Office Service Pack 3... The problem
comes from the fact that some SMTP servers utilise a SSL/SPA
authentication
method that Microsoft Outlook 2002 does not support...

So.. just go he
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...bfd-6f69-4289-
8bd1-eb966bcdfb5e&DisplayLang=en ; download the file that you'll need...
(it'll depend on you having the original installation CD or not) and then
install the update... restart the computer and then try again... It'll fix
the problem...

Alternatively, you do NOT need to use Gmail for sending mails just because
you want to use Gmail to receive them. You can configure the e-mail account
to receive from the Gmail POP3 server and configure that account to send
using your own ISP's SMTP server. That way, you can eliminate the spam
signature that Gmail appends onto your outgoing e-mails which make them look
amateurish.
