Post subject: How to Add Gmail Account with Outlook Add to elertz

To use your Gmail e-mail account in Microsoft Outlook, you must first make sure POP3 support is enabled in Gmail, and then you can add it to Outlook.
Steps Follow
1. Log in to your Gmail account.
2. At the top of any Gmail page, click Settings.
3. In the Mail Settings window, click Forwarding and POP.
Gmail is turning on POP3 support for users in phases. If Forwarding and POP does not appear, your Gmail account cannot be configured for POP3 support.
4. In the POP Download section, select Enable POP or all mail or Enable POP only for mail that arrives from now on.
5. Click Save Settings.
6. In Outlook, on the Tools menu, click E-mail Accounts.
7. Click Add a new e-mail account, and then click Next.
8. Click POP3, and then click Next.
9. Under User Information, do the following:
1. In the Your Name box, type your full name the way you want it to appear to other people.
2. In the E-mail Address box, type your e-mail user name followed by @gmail.com.
10. Under Server Information, do the following:
1. In the Incoming mail server (POP3) box, type pop.gmail.com.
2. In the Outgoing mail server (SMTP) box, type smtp.Gmail.com.
11. Under Logon Information, do the following:
1. In the User Name box, type your full e-mail address, including @gmail.com.
2. In the Password box, type your password.
3. Select the Remember password check box.
Note You have the option to have Outlook remember your password by typing it in the Password box and selecting the Remember password check box. Having Outlook remember your password means that you won't have to type your password each time you access the account; however, it also means that the account is vulnerable to anyone who has access to your computer. Use strong passwords that combine upper- and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Weak passwords don't mix these elements. Strong password: Y6dh!et5. Weak password: House27. Use a strong password that you can remember so that you don't have to write it down.
12. Click More Settings.
13. On the General tab, under Mail Account, type Gmail.
14. Click the Outgoing Server tab, and then select the My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication check box.
