    Would it just be as easy to configure it for IMAP rather than POP?
    IMAP also uses SMTP and gives the same error on trying it.

    As I use Avast Mail Shield, to scan my mail, SSL must be turned OFF for it to work.
    As I also use Outpost FW Pro, I don't get a connection unless I shut it down and turn ON Windows FW.
    I tried the other items in my red box. 2 & 3 failed.

    Gmail POP/IMAP & SMTP requires SSL/TLS so if you aint got it setup in your client then you are never going to connect.

    If any one reading this thread uses Avast, Outpost FW & WLM with an account requiring SSL try this:-
    1 open WLM Account Propertes Advanced tab & disable both SSL. Close WLM.
    2 Set Avast Mail Shield to scan ALL.
    3 reopen WLM and wait till the error message appears. Now send a test Email, (might work/might not). Watch the Out Box.
    4 Close WLM, then Shut Down Outpost FW and enable Windows FW
    5 Now WLM does work.
