[Users] Configure Claws for IMAP GMail in Windows 10

[sgeneris]

Thanks.

I created a new acct (see attached) and got this:

* Account 'dbdebunker at pop.gmail.com': Connecting to POP3 server: pop.gmail.com:995...
[2022-03-22 10:47:40] POP< +OK Gpop ready for requests from 2601:645:8980:980:2561:2d18:fc23:bd81 i15mb77351877otj
[2022-03-22 10:47:40] POP> USER dbdebunker at gmail.com
[2022-03-22 10:47:40] POP< +OK send PASS
[2022-03-22 10:47:40] POP> PASS ********
[2022-03-22 10:47:40] POP< +OK Welcome.
[2022-03-22 10:47:40] POP> STAT
[2022-03-22 10:47:40] POP< +OK 0 0
[2022-03-22 10:47:40] POP> QUIT
[2022-03-22 10:47:40] POP< +OK Farewell.
* Account 'DBDebunk': Connecting to IMAP server: imap.gmail.com:143...
** IMAP error on imap.gmail.com: connection refused

I see POP response even though I set it as IMAP.
