>>Hi,
>>
>>Today I see a message, when loading Outlook, that Office 365 was being updated. F-ing MS does not even ask if I want to.
>>
>>After this update, I cannot receive Gmail emails in my Outlook, Unless I disable Avast (the AV). Note that messages can be sent but not received. The Outlook shows the error "The server does not support the connection encryption type you have specified."
>>
>>In the Outlook, the gmail accounts have the Incoming server (POP3) set to 995 and the box This server requires an encrypted connection (SSL) is checked.
>>
>>Then I looked at the Avast settings (attached is an image). I found a message online that says to CLEAR all the port number in these settings. I want to understand the ramifications before I do.
>>
>>Any suggestions, please?

I can't ignore it. Would Thunderbird work in Windows 7?
