Microsoft Outlook and Gmail help question?

So i just added gmail as my account in Microsoft Office however this error message has come up



Task 'Gmail - Sending' reported error (0x80070057) : 'Could not complete the operation. One or more parameter values are not valid.'



What does this mean and how can i fix it?

you shouldn't need to change your ports -- gmail uses default ports.



It sounds like maybe your servers are not right.



WHen setting up account in outlook you should spcify that it is a POP3 email account.



The give this as the POP server address



pop.gmail.com



and this as the STMP server address



smtp.gmail.com



For your username put your gmail address (yourname@gmail.com) and depending on your version of outlook it may or may not ask if your outgoing mail server (SMTP is the outgoing) requires authentication. IT DOES REQUIRE AUTH. so if it didnt ask you that -- go into the account settings, (yoou might have to click "more settings" or somthing like that. and look under the "servers" tab -- near the bottom there is a check box that says "outgoing mail server requires auth" --- make sure that is checked.

Above user is right check out your pop3 and smtp protocols.
Hi!



Make sure you ENABLED POP3 and SMTP access on your Gmail. If not, go to Settings, etc...



Then, try again.



Good luck!
You probably need to change your ports (SMTP and POP3).



Good luck.
