What we want to do is go up to tools and click on our email account and we are going to add a new email account, then click on next. This email account is going to be a typical email dial up account. It is going to be called a POP3 and you select that and hit next and now we have the main window of where to set the configurations so Outlook knows to contact Gmail to get all of our emails.
