1405236 2015-07-23 22:52:00 Hi guys.

Trying to set up a fresh Gmail account on my Windows mail, something I have done heaps of times and get this error message.

Account: 'XXXXhnz2014', Server: 'pop.gmail.com', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR [AUTH] Web login required: support.google.com Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92

Any idea on what I'm doing wrong?

Yes I have.
I can log in, via webmail, but even changing the login/password on one that works and it still won't get in.

1405239 2015-07-24 02:22:00 Did you set live mail for the password for both incoming and outgoing?
Also why POP, why not IMAP?

See if there's anything helpful here email.about.com

1405243 2015-07-24 08:01:00 Pop 3 because l''ve been emailing over 20 odd years and always used it.
I've rechecked the email account and set up correctly.
So still have no idea what'd wrong.
