Trying to install Claws to Gmail imap

Post by fstjohn »

I'm trying to get Claws email client working but keep getting errors when I try to list subscriptions:

The first error is "Certificate for imap.gmail.com has changed. Do you want to accept it?"
I answer yes. Then I get the following:

"Connection to imap.gmail.com failed: login refused.
LOGIN logins only work if libetpan has been compiled with SASL support and the LOGIN SASL plugin is installed."

I'm using Gmail with 2-factor login and Cinnamon 19. I got the one-time password from Google and put it in the Claws Gmail account password fields.

Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?
