Outlook 2016 disable certificate checking

Tags:

outlook

I have a Gmail account that i managed from Windows Live Mail without any problem. Now i use Outlook 2016 but every time i open it, it informs me that Gmail's certificate can't be verified. I found many answers in web for other versions but none for 2016. I create a registry key,as somebody suggested (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Security SupressNameChecks=1) but still nothing. Any idea please ?

In case nobody has found an answer to this yet:

The correct Registry key name is SuppressNameChecks. That's TWO p characters in Suppress.

Spent an hour in frustration pulling my hair out wondering why this setting wasn't working until I decided to, just in case, try using a different spelling than what the internet is telling me. Et voila, certificate errors - gone.
