Vista - SMTP error

I found a great program that was very helpful,but, I can not figure out how
to clear one error. Can someone help,Please? Using gmail, I get an error
reading "the e mail address configured for sending via SMTP is incorrect".
Can anyone help decipher this issue? Thanks

Hi Tim,

SMTP is your outgoing email server. In Windows Mail:
1. Click Tools.
2. Click Accounts.
3. Select your Email account and click Properties.
4. Look in the Server and Advanced tabs

Compare your settings to these at Gmail's website and make sure they are the same. The OE settings are the same for Windows Mail.

Gmail: Help Center - Configuring your email client: Outlook Express

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Shawn, Thanks for the info.Unfortunately all the settings are accurate. Why
on earth does microsoft make things so difficult. Do you have any other
suggestions to help solve the mystery? thanks for your time

Can you post the error message complete with codes?

Sure Julian,
-- The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'Windows Mail', Server:
'pop.gmail.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Socket Error:
10013, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

Thanks a ton

It looks like you have configured it correctly but
have you ENABLED POP within Gmail itself as described...

http://mail.google.com/support/bin/a...y?answer=13273

Don't forget to save changes.

Is that the complete error message? Usually Windows Mail will
include detailed error codes, server name, and other diagnostic
information.

Here are all the error messages I get

When trying to send I get this message :
-- The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'hard drive ', Account:
'Windows Mail', Server: 'smtp.gmail.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 465,
Secure(SSL): Yes, Socket Error: 10013, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

In addition I tried using GMAIL troubleshooter and it gives me this message
: the e mail address configured for sending via SMTP is incorrect.
Does this make any damn sense to anyone?

Have you double checked the email address you have specified?

Tools > Accounts > your email > Properties > General > Email Address

Check the following too

Tools > Accounts > your email > Properties > Servers > Email User name

BTW which AV are you using?

Julian, Thanks for the help unfortunately, I had no success. Im about to
chuck this brand new toshiba off the 3rd story deck of my house and scream. I
think I know what the problem is but I dont know how to fix the problem. If I
delete the e mail account and reconfigure it from the start there is a email
address that stays the same no matter how often I change it and it is a typo
(.mail instead of .gmail). This is why i am getting rhe error that reads
there is conflicting email accounts. Have you heard of this occuring? Thanks,
