Defeated by Gmail, can anyone assist?

Hello everyone new to this forum but not new to forums in general. Can anyone assist as I've been defeated by Gmail? Short history, just gone to Sky Broadband - total incompetents, for whatever reason I have no Sky email account so have had to use Gmail, not the end of the world I know but annoying nonetheless. Anyway to the point - I have three computers and want to be able to retrieve or read mail from anyone of them. I set up all the accounts and enabled POP3 as I'm using Outlook. I then went into advanced tab in Outlook when setting up the accounts there and ticked the boxes "leave a copy of messages on server" "remove from server after X amount of days" and finally "remove from server when deleted from Deleted Items. This should do it as I have used this method before when I was with BT - it's also the method MS tell you to use.

Despite doing this I am only getting mail on the PC I send it from e.g. as a test I sent test mail to the two other email addresses. This should be picked up on my two other computers but it isn't being, it's only being picked up on the PC that I send it from and I have tried it on all three. Is there a setting somewhere that I should have ticked in Google setup?
