Hi friends I am having an Gmail account and I want to add that gmail account to my Outlook 2007.Can anyone help me out or direct me what procedure I need to follow for adding my gmail account.
Sure here are the steps which you need to follow :-
- First we need to make sure your gmail account is set up to enable POP (Post Office Protocol). In Gmail just go to mail settings and choose the Forwarding and POP tab. Click on one of the options to enable POP.
- Now open up Outlook 2007 and go to Tools \ Account Settings.
- Under Account Settings choose the E-mail tab and click on New.
- Enter in all of your gmail account information **make sure there is no check next to Manually configure serverā¦** You do not have to go through these extra steps. Just click on Next.
Go back to your inbox and hit send/receive and you are done!
There is One more way of adding your account to outlook:-
- If you are having problems with the automatic setup, you'll need to choose the "Manually Configure Server" option, and then fill in your details as follows:
- Email Address: Your full gmail address
- Incoming Mail Server: pop.gmail.com
- Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.gmail.com (Note: If you have problems with sending email you may have to check with your internet provider, as they often require you to send email through their system.
- User Name: Your full gmail email address.
- Now you'll need to click on the More Settingsā¦ button, and check the box on the Outgoing Server tab for "My outgoing server requires authentication"
- Now switch to the Advanced tab, and check the box that says "This server requires an encrypted connection", then change the fields to match these values:
- Incoming Server: 995
- Check the box for "This server requires an encrypted connection"
- Outgoing Server (SMTP): 587
- Change the type of encrypted connection to Auto, or use TLS if you have problems.
- Close the dialogs and go through the rest of the wizard and everything should be working.
