Find incoming/outgoing mail server gets canceled automatically...

[burcete.iulian]

i'm very sure i made all the settings right.
when i did the setup for using a gmail.com email for outlook ON MY
COMPUTER, it worked like a charm.
i went to my girlfriend and used exactly the same settings as i used
on my computer.
When i pressed "Test account settings"(on my girlfriends computer), it
had:
-Establish network connection - successful
-Find outgoing mail server(SMTP) - CANCELED
-Find incoming mail server(POP3) - CANCELED
-Log onto incoming mail server(POP3) - none
-Send test e-mail message - none

i did exactly the same settings on both computers(mine, and my
girlfriends computer).
On my computer, as mentioned above, it worked like a charm.
What the heck is wrong?

Did you check your girlfriend's ISP recommendations?
