Hello,
I have aslo a Gmail account
My Gmail account password works on the webmail site,
But not with Kmail (TDE) (password not recognised).
Everything is allright : mail,
pop.gmail.com, port (995), password...
Why ?
Thanks,

I receive gmail using
pop.gmail.com, port 995, etc. I do not send
through=20 gmail, although I have it configured for smtp port 587. I
usually send=20 through my
zoho.com account, as I have found that they
are a lot less hassl= e=20
than messing round with Google crap. However, we cannot escape Google=20
entirely, and I still use it to receive certain emails, mostly for
business= =2E=20
Did you try "check what the server supports" in the configuration
settings?= I=20
notice that Gmail doesn't like Kmail using encryption. SSL (no TLS),
but=20 clear text for authentication?!?!=20
That bothers me, although at least I can use Gmail to receive, which is
bet= ter=20
than not being able to use it at all.=20

I've had no problems using imap and pop3 gmail with kmail.
I just figured out their nonesense.
Here are my settings, hopefully it will help
Incoming:
Host =
pop.gmai.com
Port = 995
Encryption = SSL
Auth Meth = clear text
Outgoing:
Host =
smtp.gmail.com
Port = 465
Fill in Server requires authentication
Encryption = SSL
Auth Meth = plain

My IP address and mac address are always changing, sometimes within a single
session (when my networkmanager is working as I want); and when I first built
a Debian > Devuan machine (which was a process of migration), Gmail would
send me warnings all the time, or block me from using it.
Also, they don't like when you access Gmail from different locations, or using
different devices; so when I went to the library, and used Gmail there, then
came home, I would get blocked at my home address. When my IP address changed
(because I use a big local network), I would get blocked for that. When I
used Kmail to access Gmail, then used Gmail through a web browser, I would
get blocked for that. They also don't like when you use different devices
(desktop computer, laptop, tablet, smartphone, public computer, etc.); so
when I checked Gmail from these different points of origin, I would get
blocked for that.
And then, finally, once I set up Gmail as already described, I stopped getting
warning notices, and no longer get blocked. However, neither do I check Gmail
from different locations any more, but mostly just from my desktop at home.
