   Do any of you use Outlook for sending and receiving emails? I've used it for many years but now for some reason I cannot email to any gmail address. The mail is returned with an error message.

   Recently I jumped through a lot of hoops to start receiving my own gmails again in Outlook (which they had stopped doing) so I sent the message via that account and it succeeded.

   So, am I to understand that we cannot now send emails to a gmail account via anything other than a gmail address in Outlook???

     @oldrawgabbit no, there should be no problems with sending emails from Outlook to gmail addresses (I do this very often), so it must be some specific problem. What is the error message you're getting?

     @oldrawgabbit hmm, not really sure - it sounds like it's related to the outgoing server and/or the SPF and DKIM records for the domain of the email you're sending from. Maybe some mismatch between the email address/domain you are sending from and the outgoing email server? But not really too sure about the details, sorry!

     @mario The only hint in the return txt was "this mail is unauthenticated" but my own server's txt shows that it went successfully through their system, it said:

     X-Authenticated_id: [correct]
     X-Authenticated-Sender: [correct]
     X-TSO-Authenticated: [correct]
     X-Originating-IP: [correct]

     so it looks like Gmail refused to receive the mail.
