On Wednesday 25 May 2022, William Morder via tde-users was heard to
say:
Is there any way to configure Kmail to work with Gmail
(i.e., using
2FA or OAuth2, etc.) without having to get into Gmail itself?
because, you see, I can't even login on a Gmail page, much less get
into my account. And yet, until at least the end of this month, I
can still receive Gmail.
It's deep and hard to find, but Gmail does have a "unique application
password", generated by Gmail, which when pasted into Kmail works as
a POP3 password for authentication.
I have Kmail pulling POP3 from port 995 using that function and it's
working fine. Sending from Kmail is by SMTP through my ISP.
