I recieve these msgs when i try to use (Office 2003's) Outlook....
----------------------------------
Task 'Gmail - Receiving' reported error (0x80040900) : 'The server
name you entered can not be found on the network (it might be down
temporarily). Please verify that you are online and that the server
name is correct.' ---------------------------------
Task 'Gmail - Sending' reported error (0x800CCC7D) : 'Your outgoing
(SMTP) server does not support SSL-secured connections. If
SSL-secured connections have worked in the past, contact your server
administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).'
------------------------------------
These messages are pretty clear. The first indicates that the server name
you're using can't be found. Either there is a networking issue, a domain
name service issue, or you've not specified the server name correctly. If
you use nslookup at a command prompt, does the server name resolve?
The second indicates you have the "Use SSL" option checked in the account
settings. DIsable it and see what happens.
