DM: Hi, Geoffrey. Am I understanding right that you are trying to use
your Gmail login password in one or more of the password fields in the
Claws Mail settings? Note that if you are using OAuth2, then you should
not manually enter anything in these password fields, since the OAuth2
setup / authorization process will populate these for you. So try just
leaving them empty, then go through the OAuth2 setup process, and then
go back and check them to make sure they've been auto-populated. If
they have, then I think things should work as expected for you. HTH,
