Hi Neville and netbat, I'm using Outlook with Hotmail, which is IMap, and, an issue worth noting, since it affects how Outlook performs, is that my Hotmail IMap account is my default account. Outlook does perform differently when a POP account is the default, as my study has revealed.
Just giving info, Rod -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Neville via Talk Sent: Wednesday, August 31, 2016 2:51 AM To: net bat <[email protected]>; Window-Eyes Discussion List <[email protected]> Subject: Re: Gmail account setup Hi, Following Marc's instructions, Outlook was set up with pop while it appears Gmail's default is Imap. If I am able to gain access to Gmail after being locked out, then the default will be changed to pop. Hopefully this will fix the problem. Cheers Neville.
