by Joseph Rybka on Dec.20, 2007, under How To, Tutorials

I decided to make a tutorial for those of us that need to set-up Google’s IMAP mail service in Outlook 2003. I hope this helps some of you guys out.

  • Make sure POP access is turned on for your Gmail account.
  • Select Tools/E-mail accounts from the menu in Outlook.
  • Make sure add a new e-mail account is selected.
  • Click Next.
  • Choose POP3 as the Server Type.
  • Click Next.
  • Enter your Gmail account details in the Internet E-mail Settings (POP3) dialog.
    • Type your full name under your name.
    • Type your Gmail e-mail address under E-mail Address.
    • Type your full Gmail address under User Name: as well.
    • Type your Gmail password under Password.
    • Type pop.gmail.com under Incoming mail server (POP3)
    • Type smtp.gmail.com under Outgoing mail server (SMTP)
  • Click More Settings.
  • Go to the Outgoing Server tab.
  • Make sure My Outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication is checked.
  • Leave Use same settings as my incoming mail server selected.
  • Go to Advanced tab.
  • Make sure This server requires an encrypted connection (SSL) is checked under both Incoming server (POP3) : and Outgoing server (SMTP).
  • Type 465 under outgoing server (SMTP).
    • If the number under Incoming server (POP3) : has not been changed to 995 automatically, enter 995 there.
  • Click OK.
  • Click Next.
  • Click Finish.

I will be adding a tutorial on how to Access Gmail with Outlook 2007 soon.
