I have Microsoft Outlook 2013. Years ago I was able to set up my main gmail account to dump into Outlook. I now have reason to have 3 different gmail accounts. However, I have tried repeatedly to add those new gmail accounts to Outlook. Each time I am rejected. Every time I receive a notice stating "Your IMAP server wants to alert you to the following: Please log in via your web browser. Then it suggests I look at https://support.google.com/mail/accounts/answer/ 78754.
Essentially this webpage just tells me Gmail doesn't think the security of Microsoft Outlook 2013 is up to their standards. I don't really care what Gmail thinks. It's my account. I want it to dump into Outlook. I take the risk. Enough said. So, I use the steps they offer and try to set my account to 'accept' the request from Outlook. However, even though I follow their directions, I still keep getting the same error message.
I've tried restarting the program - everything works the same. I've tried both gmail accounts. Same issue.
Can anyone help me out here?
Thanks!
