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

    Pop is the only protocol that has to be turned on.

    To compound the problem, now emails received are duplicated.

    The same email is received by the Primary email address and the same email is also received by the alias!

    This obviously affects Outlook on Android, where duplicated emails are also received.

    I wonder how long it will take for Microsoft and Outlook.com to respond, acknowledge the error and rectify it?

    Same issue for a few weeks now. Trying to add a new email address. Can't. And unable to see/edit email addresses already added.

    Been on to Support today. Total waste of time. They didn't seem to know what I was talking about when I shared the error message or recognise that there were others with the same issue.

    I referred them to posts in this forum.

    After 45 minutes chatting with Support, no progress and none the wiser!
