Set up your domain on a web hosting plan with cPanel, and then just create an email account on cPanel then set it up in Outlook much more professional. If you just want emails i could give you a cPanel for £5 a month. Speak to me on msn or email mason.soiza@live.co.uk

If you want to use the Web interface with Gmail (which is what most people mean when they say "Gmail") then you're stuck with what they give you: it's a proprietary application with their own servers. And "what they give you" includes inserting the Sender: header into your email, which Outlook uses to create the dreaded "on behalf of" messaged.
You can use POP or IMAP with your Gmail account, however, and access it using any of the normal email clients - Thunderbird, Mac Mail, Outlook, etc. In that case, you and either choose to use the SMTP server provided by your ISP or, if the ISP puts limitations on access to that server, a virtual SMTP server like http://www.loapowertools.com.

Apologies for the mistakes in my previous answer. I hit "Submit" before I had a chance to finish it. Here's the complete and correct version.

Yeah, ksgordo, I want the Gmail interface, search functionalities, tagging etc. but without the sender. I'm sorry to hear it's not possible. I read somewhere that Gmail was actually "working" on making it possible, but that was several months ago, so I don't know if they dropped the idea again.
Do you know if you sign up with a business account if it then is possible to associate other email accounts from other domains and send out without the gmail "sender"?

I know people who use the Google business account service and who don't complain about the "on behalf of" problem. I think their solution involved some jiggery-pokery with MX settings etc., but I'm not sure and haven't ever taken the time to look into it. Sorry I can't be of more help.
