Make sure that POP is enabled in Gmail (see step-1)
Check you are using port 995 and encryption SSL. (see step 6, 7 and 8 carefully)

Problem persists?
try running a telnet test to determine whether the port is blocked on your network:

For Windows Vista users, you need to enable Telnet:
1. Click the Start button, then Control Panel, and Programs.
2. Click Turn Windows Features On or Off.
3. Enter administrator password or confirmation as prompted.
4. In the Windows Features box, check the box labeled Telnet Client, and click OK. (It may take a few minutes for the installation to complete.)

To run the telnet test on a Windows computer:
1. Press Windows + R keys form keyboard.
2. Type “cmd” in text field and hit enter, this will open a command window.
3. Type “telnet pop.gmail.com 995″ and hit Enter.
If this command show an error then it means your network is blocking to access Gmail’s pop servers, you should contact network admin or ISP customer support department for instructions

These are the error messages that I am getting:

Log onto incoming mail server (POP3): Outlook cannot connect to your incoming (POP3) e-mail server. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).

Send test e-mail message: Outlook cannot connect to your outgoing (SMTP) e-mail server. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).

I have tried disabling the firewall in case that was blocking me from making the connections. Again, I am most appreciative of any help you can provide!

I have followed your instructions implicitly many times and come to error messages when I test the connections. I am trying to set up my gmail to come through outlook 2007 on a new computer. I have used outlook at work for many years and love it. I am retiring and would love to continue to use it with my gmail account. Do you have any suggestions? I am most appreciative of any help you can give.

Thanks,

Jo-Anne
