SMTP settings for Gmail account -- Error 5.5.1 on Outlook for Mac

Outlook 2011
Error: 5.5.1
Cannot send mail. The SMTP server does not recognize any of the authentication methods supported by Outlook. Try changing the SMTP authentication options in Account settings.
Error Code: -17092
I am setting up a Gmail account on Outlook. I can receive mail but not send it.
I have confirmed the right settings with Gmail and made sure to enable IMAP.
-- Outgoing Server -- smtp.gmail.com : 465 (or 587, both don't work)
-- Override default port (enabled)
-- Use SSL to connect (enabled)
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

  • HT1277 how do I find my outgoing mail server info for gmail account set up?

    how do I find my outgoing mail server info for gmail account setup?

    Most current Mac systems have a preloaded set of information and settings for the common email providers.  Try just choosing gmail and enter your userid and password at the prompts and see if the preload configures correctly for you.

  • Field cost centre is a required field for GL account Error

    The error that I get during a sales transaction is: Field cost centre is a required field for GL account Error. Where or which transaction in FI do I use to maintain this setting.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    Goto Tcode - OKB9. Search for that G/L account number under your co. code. There select the row, you can maintain the cost center directly. Else for Account assignment detail column, keep it as 1(Valuation area mandatory). Then under new entries maintain the valuation area, which is nothing but the plant, and against that maintain the cost center.
    Hope this resolves your query.
    Please let me know if you need any additional information.
    Thanks,

  • TS3899 i receiving my gmails with 15+ minutes delay. this is because no option for "push" data, only "fetch" for gmail account. How can fix that?

    I receiving my gmails with 15+ minutes delay. this is because no option for "push" data, only "fetch" for gmail account. How can fix that?

    Sign up for Google's paid Apps for Business service, you can then set things up using Exchange & you'll get push using Gmail. Otherwise, you can't get push using Gmail.

  • In private browsing not working in Firefox 3.6.12 If I open yahoomail one session for one account and if I open other session for yahoomail, it automatically opens the earlier mail account.

    In private browsing not working in Firefox 3.6.12 If I open yahoomail one session for one account and if I open other session for yahoomail, it automatically opens the earlier mail account. But if I want to use more than one yahoomail accounts, in private browsing is not working. Please suggest.

    That problem isn't related to Private Browsing specifically, that's how Firefox works with regards to multiple "sessions" with the same server - only one logon is allowed at any time. Try using one of these extensions to be able to run multiple session cookies.

  • Port 993 error message, now can't set up MacMail for GMail account.

    I've been using MacMail for years without a problem. Recently a little exclamation point came up with an error message indicating that the server couldn't connect with the 993 port for my Gmail account. After trying to update my software, restart the program, etc etc I deleted the account, thinking I'd just recreate a MacMail connection to my Gmail account. Not I'm receiving an error message that the server imap.gmail.com is not responding, and I can not set up a MacMail account linked to my Gmail.
    I've seen lots of people with this problem, but no sufficient answers to correct it. I am not using a portable device, I am using my iMac to try to make this happen.
    Please help! Any incite is much appreciated.
    Thank you.
    Emily

    Hi Emily,
    For port 993, is SSL checked & authentication = Password?
    Could this be it?
    Gmail send but not receive...
    Here are two steps that have come in handy in related situations
    1) login to gmail on your computer or device via a web browser
    2) once logged in successfully, go to this URL to unlock:

  • HT201320 Email app using gmail account error

    Suddenlly, email app shows error "cannot get email username or password incorrect" (gmail account). Considering I am using this ipad since last year and this email for many years, what could be the resolvation? I don't have the 2 step verifying activated for the gmail account...

    Yes, i can sign in on safari, the email works on the gmail app (which is inferior to the apple email app).. Even on blackberry it works as usual! I can't even set the account again because of that message...
    i Know i saw something "weird" in  the account settings in the ipad: the settings for mail account from the outgoing server smtp (which are on) were cemented (grey and not accessible) and for Authentication it was set (and also blocked like all that part) Gmail client token...

  • Gmail accounts in new 6 plus continually asking for password

    Gmail accounts transferred to new 6 plus continually ask for password; how to remedy?

    Google for:
    setup yahoo plus mail on iphone
    and see if you can tell what you are doing wrong. Sometinmes it is easier to delete the account from the iPod and reenter the settings rather than trying to find the error.

  • I am using a Macbook Air mid 2012 and an apple application "Mail". With only one email account (Yahoo), everything works perfectly. But the problem started when I added GMAIL account. Now it keeps on asking for my password for gmail and keychain.

    With only Yahoo account in my Macbook Air "Mail", everything works perfectly. Problem started when I added my Gmail account. It keeps on asking my account and keychain passwords. And all my accounts always works offline.

    It sounds like you may need to go into Mail>Preferences>Accounts and Complete setting up you Gmail account.  It may not be finished being setup.  For instance, note the line below to be selected from the drop down list in "Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP", then  "Edit SMTP Server List":
    Hope this helps

  • Problem with Mail app for Gmail account!

    Hi all,
    I have a Gmail account synced to my Mail app, I have the latest software version: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2.
    The problem started couple of weeks ago, when a new folder under the name "Archive" showed up in the left bar of my Mail app. Thereafter, coming messages started to go there instead of coming to my "inbox" folder. This created quite few issues with new coming messages. Can anyone know how to solve that?
    Thank you in advance.
    p.s. I tried to uncheck the box " Gmail.com > settings > Labels > All mail - show in IMAP", this has solved the "archive" issue, as it has disappeared from my Mail right bar. But This has created further issues with coming messages, as I stopped receiving messages at all to my Mail.

    Try another e-mail program.
    Airmail is selling pretty well in the App Store and has been reported to work better with G-mail..

  • I'm unable to save preferences for mailbox behaviors for Gmail accounts in Mavericks mail

    when I uncheck the checkboxes beside Drafts, Sent and Junk and save the changes for my Gmail account they end up checked again. Why is this and how can I make it accept the changes?

    I think it's trying to open it in a gMail eMail & is losing your gMail password that it needs log into gMail, but not 100% positive.
    Have you tried Right clicking or Control+click on the eMail link & choose Copy? Works on some, not others.

  • Alias label on emails for gmail accounts on iphone

    I use an alias on my gmail account with Entourage on my MacBook Pro that shows up when sending & replying in Entourage. However, I have not been able to use the alias email labels for messages on my iphone. Is there a way to accomplish this, so that emails originating, forwarding, & replying from my iphone via GMail display the alias email account?

    Go to your archived section and you should delete emails on your account on your computer so you can mark all of them to delete and it can go by faster but does not delete all mail at once.

  • Export address book for Gmail account

    Hello!
    I would like to export my address book as a CSV file for import into Gmail. Address book can export a vcard, but I don't see anything about CSV.
    I'd enter it manually, but I'd MUCH rather use my current address book - it's correct, and I don't have to type in stuff!
    Thanks,
    Dan

    Here is an Applescript I wrote for just that purpose. It's a little rough but all your main info is translated to Gmail fields. Do not use this script for a "backup", as it drops a lot of fields.
    I have been the only one to use this, so reports/complaints are welcome. Script beeps when finished, and the file appears on your desktop.

  • Gmail Account Errors

    I have not been able to set up my Gmail account.
    After entering the required information, "Name", "Address" and "Password" I receive the following message, "Cannot connect using SSL. Do you want to try setting up an account with out SSL?" I click yes and after several minutes I receive this message, "Gmail account verification failed. The POP server, 'pop.gmail.com' is not responding. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the incoming mail server field." I am not filling in any information in the 'incoming mail server field.' I am simply following the instructions provided by the phone.
    I have tried it several times and get the same results each time. Any suggestions?

    If I had read a little further in this topic I would have seen the answer. I needed to turn on POP in my Gmail account. I did this and the setup was extremely easy.
