Recently I started having problems with my AVG Internet Security blocking my Outlook client from accessing imap.google.com. My wifi is trusted. My Outlook is not blocked. The only way I can check or send email is turning my firewall off. Has anyone else experienced this? What did you do to resolve this problem? I have tried to look through Google but the steps were for an older version of AVG.

Hello James.
Thank you for contacting AVG Community Forum. I see you are facing issues with your Email being blocked by AVG. I am sorry for the inconvenience. Could you please confirm whether you connected in VPN? Because When connected to AVG Secure VPN, you may experience problems while trying to send emails from an email client, such as Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, or Apple Mail (Mac). This article contains instructions to solve such issues:
