I am using the free version of Outlook.com and followed the forums and help how to set up a GMail sync to Outlook.com.

However since two days I got this clicking on the "Sync Email" menu.

Even the X button on the upper right corner does not operates when being in this menu.

I tried this menu in browsers like Edge, Internet Explorer, Chrome, Opera.

All the same results.

Questions:

  1. can I use Gmail sync using free version of Outlook.com?
  2. do you know this

Outlook | Web | Outlook.com | Settings

    I'm also having the same issue, same 500 error from the server. My paid Microsoft account is essentially useless to me until this gets fixed. Any news from Microsoft would be greatly appreciated.

    Same problem but with my folders, same message about loading files. Not technically able to understand all the responses but my guess would be I started to pay for service it would go away

    And it’s not just I can’t select account I want to send it from when using iPhone or desktop app, but the problem that default outlook.com email address stopped working and does not accept email.
