    My error message seems straightforward enough:

    Connect to Mail Host

Postie connection: sockets

Postie protocol: imap-ssl

Postie server: imap.gmail.com

Postie port: 993

Unable to connect. The server said: IMAP - Could not connect to IMAP server imap.gmail.com on port 993. Array
(
    [0] => A0002 NO [AUTHENTICATIONFAILED] Invalid credentials (Failure)
)

    I’ve confirmed the account and password credentials are correct (multiple times). Checked the settings. Took a break between checks so Google wouldn’t have a time-out problem. Tried the less-secure settings (got a “log in via browser” message). Checked the captcha. Read the forum posts. Don’t have 2nd party auth on, so can’t do special password for this app. Not finding where the trouble is here. Any hints, clues, suggestions?

    Do you have IMAP enabled on your gmail account? See https://postieplugin.com/getting-started/

    Yes, IMAP is enabled as directed.

    Have tried everything on this page.

    End of debug page appears to say login info isn’t working, but I’m logged in using same:

    Postie just reports what Gmail tells it.

    Many people (including myself) use Gmail with Postie.

    Does POP work?

    I have the same issue with office 365 this morning. it worked perfectly on Saturday and the plugin was updated on Monday morning. I guess my issue is slightly different as I am using the POP3_SSL

    The update was unrelated to how Postie communicates with the mail server so it seems unlikely to be related.

    Getting logs via the Support Addon may be helpful. https://postieplugin.com/downloads/support-addon/

    I have tried both Gmail and Office 365 which both did work previously. I have rolled back postie to check that as well and it still fails. I collect the logs for you but in the mean time this next bit shows up in all the requests to gmail and office365. Was there some March 1st change to SSL or something that both Google and Microsoft would have implemented?

    it started working again…. not sure what was going on. Sorry for taking up your time

    Interesting. @judic is it working for you now as well?
