Look up the specs for using Outlook Express.  It does work but you have to use their port numbers.  I think it is 993 for incoming and 465 for outgoing but if I swore I would be wring.  You also have to have the check marks for secure (ssl) encription checked for both the incoming and outgoing server. 
Those 2 items are on the advanced page.  On the servers page, you have to have to check the box about requiring authentification.  Requires password authentification should not be checked.

I just went into Gmail settings and looked up the configuration instructions for pop3.  I have done it with Outlook and Outlook Express.
