Stephen, Laura…

When you hit the 'Test account settings' button, there are (5) things
it tests. What are they and what is the test result for each?

If you don't answer this question fully, I'm not going to assist you
any further.

The tasks read:
Establish network connection - Completed
Find outgoing mail server (SMTP) - Completed
Find incoming mail server (POP3) - Completed
Log onto incoming mail server (POP3) - Completed
Sent test email message - Failed

Under Errors, it reads:
Send test email message: Unable to send test message. please verify the
email address field.


Thanks!!

Can't understand what exactly?

1) What precisely do you have in the email address field for this
account? It should be your complete Gmail address )
nothing more, nothing less.

2) Are you 100% certain you have enabled POP3 access at Gmail.com?

3) Have you actually received any Gmail with Outlook thus far?

OK at this point... If you send me screen captures of each and every
panel you filled out in Outlook to configure this account (there
should be no more than 8, I'll look them over. (JPG please, *not*
BMP).

Be sure to include each screen under 'more settings' and all tabs
under 'Advanced'.

This was my original problem. I am positive that the email address field is
typed in correctly and that POP is enabled in gmail.

i wil send the screen shots if you give me an email address to send them to.
