When I started using Outlook.com, I added my Gmail account as a send/receive account using POP.  This has worked flawlessly for me, until last week.

It seems that sometime around 10/23, POP stopped working.  I no longer receive any mail (via Gmail) in Outlook.com.  Also, when I try to edit the account information to verify that it is correct, an error is displayed simply stating that there is a problem.  Here are the steps that I follow:

In Outlook.com, I click the "gear" menu in the header.

Click "More mail settings"

Click "Your email accounts", under "Managing your account"

Click "Details" next to my Gmail account (labeled "Send and receive") in the section "Accounts you've added"

A message box is displayed which lists the following information:

"To send email from this account without "on behalf of", update your SMTP settings."

"Messages have been successfully retrieved from this account."

I am given the ability to click an Edit or Remove button.

Click the Edit button.

The message box is closed, but I'm then presented with a screen which states:

"Sorry, there seems to be a problem with Outlook right now"

Initially, I assumed that maybe there was a known issue that was being worked on, so I let it go.  It's now been over a week and I've grown tired of having to check both my Gmail account and Outlook.com.  Most of my family and friends use my Gmail address as it has been in service for many, many years.
