No you don't. You need to read (via the web) the nasty email Gmail
sends you when your Outlook tries to connect. In there is a linik
which takes you to the place where you can enable access from
"less secure devices".<br>
<br>
I hope this helps as I have to do this for everyone with whom I
work who has a Gmail account and for whom I want to teach
Outlook<smile>.<br>

Cordially,<br>

I will hunt for this option. Did you have to add an add-on to Outlook to
make this work?

Subject: Re: [nfbcs] Connecting a gmail e-mail account to Outlook 2016
Louis,
Google thinks that if it is not Google it is insecure. There is an option
in the Gmail preferences that lets you make your account available to less
secure clients and such. If you look through your mail options on the GMAIL
website you will find them, but if you can't I will try to be more specific.
I had to deal with this a couple of months ago.
Best regards,
Steve Jacobson

Subject: [nfbcs] Connecting a gmail e-mail account to Outlook 2016
Folks,
I am trying to connect a gmail e-mail account to my Outlook 2016 e-mail
client. My internet provider is AT&T, and my e-mail domain is swbell.net.
Google insists that my client is insecure. My Outlook 2016 e-mail settings
are:
Incoming = imap.gmail.com
Port = 993
Requires SSL = Yes
Outgoing = smtp.gmail.com
Port = 465 or 587
Requires SSL = Yes
Requires Authentication = Yes
Same settings as incoming
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Louis Maher
