I show the way to enable IMAP, and how I've set up Gmail IMAP in Microsoft Outlook for my clients' dozens of times, with steps that will work every single time. In this tutorial, I show step by step instructions, including screenshots, of everything you need to do.
The same error can also occur if you haven't enabled IMAP correctly or have disallowed Less Secure Apps to connect to your Gmail account when not using 2 Step Verification to secure your Gmail account. But do not turn off this great security feature just to get around the problem - there is a much better way. So why does it happen? The password error frequently occurs if you have 2-Step-Verification enabled on your Gmail account. The repeating password error prompt when trying to configure IMAP with a Gmail account in Microsoft Outlook is a common cause of frustration. On various tech forums that I frequent, as well as at Experts Exchange, I often see people frustrated with the process of creating an IMAP (Internet Messaging Access Protocol) connection because Outlook keeps asking for a password, despite the correct password having been entered.
