    Bless you. I was almost in tears over this!!! One minute it was working, the next, outlook wouldn't pull down anything - from two different gmail accounts!

    I tried to do this when Verizon stopped supporting email. Neither they nor AOL could help me. I just changed to Comcast and really needed to get my gmail active and sending to Outlook. I had 2 step verification which made it lengthier and some of my Google gmail titles where a bit different but with your help, it worked! I am SO grateful.

    Clear and concise. I'd reset my gmail password and as a result was locked out of accessing it via Outlook 2016. Gmail had made 2 step verification mandatory in 2022 so it took a while for me to understand why I couldn't regain access. Your tutorial explained that simply. Thanks - and subscribed.
