Alright, so I'm in [email protected]
, which I just created. I want to POP from [email protected]
to [email protected]
. I go to Gear / Settings / Accounts and Import / Add a POP3 mail account you own
. I type in [email protected]
as the address, and:
Username: [email protected]
Password: <Password>
POP Server: pop.gmail.com
Port: 995
Unchecked Leave a copy of retrieved message on the server.
Checked Always use a secure connection (SSL) when retrieving mail.
Checked Label incoming messages: [email protected]
Unchecked Archive incoming messages (Skip the inbox)
I receive the following error message:
Server denied POP3 access for the given username and password.
Server returned error: "[AUTH] Web login required: https://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?answer=78754"
Which leads me to probably one of the most unhelpful support page I've ever read in my entire life.
Beforehand, I logged into both of the accounts and went to Gear / Settings / Forwarding and POP/IMAP
and clicked Enable POP for all mail (even mail that's already been downloaded)
and When messages are accessed via POP delete Gmail's copy
. This made no difference. Are there password restrictions in POP? I just can't think of what else it might be.
