Send Issue with Gmail
We currently use Google Apps' gmail. I'm in the process of setting up
everyone to use their verision of Outlook. I've just configured one user's Outlook 2002 client to point to their gmail account and cannot get the send mail option to work. The "Test connection..." button verifies incoming POP3 but balks at my username or password when it sends a test email. Other users are not affected. The other variables are as follows: pop.gmail.com smtp.gmail.com Advanced Settings: POP - 995 (SSL) SMTP - 465 (SSL) Does anyone have any idea why I can't send mail from this account? |

"Balks"? Exactly what does that mean? If you get an error message, post the exact text of that message. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |

The Test Account Settings error reads specifically:
"Send test e-mail message: Unable to send test Message. Please verify the E-mail address field." Thanks. AJ "Brian Tillman [MVP - Outlook]" wrote in message ... "AJ" wrote in message ...

Send Issue with Gmail
Please disregard. There were two offending PC's with 03 versions of Outlook.
Each also had a Office 2007 Compatibility program installed (whether or not it matters). I uninstalled everything and installed Office 2007. POP and SMTP are now working. Regardless, here are the details: OS: XP Pro POP Setting: port 995/SSL SMTP Setting: port 465/SSL Entered was their fully qualified email address for any textbox requesting an email address OR a name. I re-entered their passwords countless times. I disabled third party firewalls and ensures that the Windows firewall was configured like the dozen other machines that had successful Outlook configurations. Thanks Brian for your help. Perhaps you're hoping for a more definitive answer but I just don't have the resources to focus on that now. - AJ "Brian Tillman [MVP - Outlook]" wrote in message ... "AJ" wrote in message ...
