Add your Gmail e-mail account

To use your Gmail e-mail account in Outlook, you must first make sure POP3 support is enabled in Gmail, and then you can add it to Outlook.

1. Log in to your Gmail account.
2. At the top of any Gmail page, click Settings.
3. In the Mail Settings window, click Forwarding and POP.

   I don't see Forwarding and POP

   Gmail is turning on POP3 support for users in phases. If Forwarding and POP does not appear, your Gmail account cannot be configured for POP3 support.

4. In the POP Download section, select Enable POP or all mail or Enable POP only for mail that arrives from now on.
5. Click Save Settings.
6. In Outlook, on the Tools menu, click E-mail Accounts.

Having Outlook remember your password means that you won't have to type your password each time you access the account; however, it also means that the account is vulnerable to anyone who has access to your computer.
