Cookies must be accepted in TB Settings/Privacy & Security, not your web browser.

The User Name for incoming and outgoing must be the email address: yourname@gmail.com.

I had changed the cookies setting in TB already. I've changed the user name and still get the same result :(.

Thanks for the try, Paul

There are millions of TB users with working gmail accounts. If yours isn't working, it's probably caused by external apps like antivirus, VPN etc. Try running Windows in safe mode to test for the effect of startup apps.
