Outlook keeps asking for Microsoft Exchange Server

Hello,
I've installed Microsoft Office 2010.

My Outlook keeps asking for Microsoft Exchange server (see attached screenshot).

I don't have Microsoft Exchange Server, I would like to work with my Gmail account via POP3.

How to get rid of this message and make Outlook to work without Exchange Server?

Thank you?

I would canel this, then go to Outlook, File, Account Settings, and delete the account. Then make a new account and this time use manual settings. Be sure to select POP3 when you set up the new account.

Click Start > Control Panel
Click User Accounts
Select the Outlook profile from the list and click remove


Once you've removed the existing profile re-open Outlook.  It'll take you through the first-run wizard.  This time select Internet E-Mail when prompted for the e-mail service type...  ;)
the name of the mailbox is not correct , its contain spaces , just go to exchange and right click on mailbox , properties , check the alias name and write it in your outlook
It is unlikely that gmail is running on Exchange servers or that the CAS server would be named 'Test'... just sayin'  ;-)  
Sorry - assumption on my part that it is looking for a CAS - if they are running Exchange 2007 it would be the MBX server I suppose!
