Linking a Non-Gmail Google Account to Android

I have a mytouch 4G that I had to do a factory reset on (long story). While going through the process of re-configuring everything, I could not add my LIVE e-mail address under Accounts & Sync as my google account. This is my google account I use every day for reader, youtube, and anything else google related.

From my phone, I was able to log into the google homepage with my live address.

I had this configured before, but now it's stating that my e-mail address @ live.com does not use gmail. That is true, but it was true before also. Did an update prevent me from being able to associated my non-gmail google account with my phone?

This is going to drive me crazy as I need this just to get into Google Play, so I can't download all my apps!
