Can't configure imap with Outlook 2003

warthog1 · 01-15-2008, 07:54 AM

Outlook setup seems to be fine. I've used the gmail guide. However whenever I try to access my imap folder in Outlook, I get a message (0X800CCC0E) telling me the server can't be accessed and imap.googlemail.com is in offline mode.

Can anyone help me fix it?

if you have firewall,The firewall needs to allow pop.gmail.com and smtp.gmail.com.
please see this articles. how to configure outlook 2003 to gmail.
or
please.,Delete and recreate your window mail.

Thanks, Ugly Cat--that makes sense, but when I go into the XP Security Center and try to add exceptions to the Firewall, it doesn't provide the option to add addresses such as pop.gmail.com--only programs and numeric addresses.

Can you guide me through the exception process, please?
