Hello,

I had a problem with Microsoft Outlook 2013 and now with 2016, defining Gmail Accounts.
When i install the product, i can define one Gmail Account with POP.
Defining the second account I get an error saying to insert the password in "pop.gmail.com".
But the password is correct when the system ask to introduce it before.
The same happens defining as IMAP.
I remember that with Microsoft Outlook 2007, i could define all accounts that I needed.
Why this happens and how I can resolve the problem?
Thank you for your help and Happy Chrystmas and New Year.
