Gmail Authentication Error in Evolution using Deepin


Hello, how are you?

My name is José Marcos and I'm from Brazil. I recently installed Deepin and then Evolution, but I am not able to access my email account. After the configuration, it prompts you to enter the password, I do this, but the following message appears: "Something went wrong - Try again" I have already enabled Imap in Gmail and gave permission for less secure applications. What I find strange, it's before Deepin, I used Linux Mint and it worked correctly. I really like Evolution and would love to continue with it. Can you help me?

Sorry for my english, I'm using Google Translate.

Thank you.

José Marcos

Hello, Jose,

there are, in my opinion, two things that were important in setting it up.

Firstly,
Have you set up an app password with gmail?
For some time now, this has been possible or necessary for all major suppliers. e. g. with my Outlook account I have to do the same.

Two:
If you have entered your password incorrectly during the query, it could be that the password has been stored in your keyring (under Deepin Linux) and is always retrieved incorrectly from there, you may have to delete it there.


Many greetings
taumeister
