Outlook: Outgoing messages won't send
Kirsten 5/28/2007 8:16:01 PM
I am trying to configure my Outlook using Gmail.

I have everything set up correctly, as per the instructions from gmail. When
I test the settings, however, it tells me to verify my email address. My
address is correct.

Is there somewhere else in outlook that configures the 'from' address, that
I would need to change? I can't find it anywhere.

Anyone out there that could help?

Thanks.

Hi, Kirsten,

What exactly is the message you get? Does it occur when you use the "Test
Account Settings" button in the e-mail account definition screen?

Yes, it occurs when I use the Test Account Settings.

This is the error I get:

"Send test email message: Unable to send test message. Please verify the
E-mail address field."

The address is correct in the Account settings.

Is there somewhere else I need to check it?

Thanks!

You might try deleting the account and re-entering it from scratch,
that might get rid of whatever is causing the problem.
