Subscribe to " FACEITNET " Youtube channel for more interesting videos 

Configuring outlook against google's GSuite is always an issue. 

Many of us wondering why can't simply configure it though they both are very well-known service providers. But still, it's an issue.

In this step-by-step configuration, I will show how to configure outlook 2016 using GMail business. 

First, this is you need to go to your GSuite admin and enable a Less secure app in the google admin for the entire organization. 

To do this. go to your Google admin and Security settings and select "Users to manage their access to less secure app". this may take 24 hours to propagate. 



Then go to your personal mail and click on the profile picture and manage and click Turn on access ( not Recommend) 

then you can see the option to turn on the Less secure app and save the setting. 

Now go to your outlook mail app ( 2016 )  and do the step by step configuration given below

Click Yes to configure 


Select Manual Setup as the outlook is not going to identify the Autodiscovery of Gmail account. 


 ( Make sure in your email settings IMAP is enabled- go to Gmail and settings  ) . 



Select POP or IMAP on outlook configuration 


Select IMAP account Type. 


Go to more settings and Outgoing server select the tick box as given below

In the advance setting tab change the configurations as given below 



You can see how it's configured. 


Thanks all.
