GMAIL: why I can't download my email?

[ijo...@jejejeje.it]

Hi, I have some gmail accounts and all works fine with Eudora 7.1.
From yesterday I can't download anymore the emails of one account.
I entered into my account in the web and I changed email many times,
but without solving the problem. I made also a security check but I
have the same problem. What can I do please? Can I write to GMAIL?
I don't know what I could do.
Thanks for some info.

I'm sorry, you are right. This is the message of Eudora:

Unfortunately I did it 3 times some days ago but it doesn't solve my
problem. Repeat: some days ago that acount worked fine, it has the
same config of my other gmail accounts. Since it didn't work anymore,
I even changed the password but I get the same problem. It seems
incredible other my acconts work fine and this account doesn't work.

It is incredible but today neither my yahoo accounts don't work.
Out of curiosity about Pandora:
Is it a more modern client than Eudora?
Is it possible to import emails (messages) from Eudora to Pandora?
Is it possible to configure Pandora getting IN and OUT mailboxes in
the same page?
If you don't understand my latest question I will send you a scree.
Thanks for your news.

[ijo...@jejejeje.it]

I need to have IN and OUT mailboxes messages on the same screen. Look
at it: https://www.dropbox.com/s/yczp3kd2o1ezexn/Eudora.JPG?dl=0
Is it possibile to config. Pandora in the same way?

I think at the end of 2018 I will have to replace Eudora with another
good email client but without losing emails. In your opinion will
Pandora work fine at the end 2018?
Thanks for your suggestions.

Somewhere in the setup online for gmail is a setting to "allow less
secure app" which needs to be set if you want to run with Eudora. (Its
default setting is "don't allow" and gmail won't allow Eudora to connect
that way so you have to specifically change it).

I'm sorry but I can't recall offhand where this is in the setup (and
don't have time to go digging right now). Dennis might know.

I have configured my gmail account some years ago to forward all incoming mail to my local provider, due to the same problem - not being able to use POP with gmail. Works perfectly.

I think that question was already answered in a thread you started
last year or the year before that.

The answer is still "yes"

Does there exist an E-mail provider that works well with Eudora (POP3)
without all the crap of GMAIL or Yahoo, that I can use as a back-up
provider when my website is down for maintenance?

Do you think if I hade solved my problem I would have done the same
question? For my poor skills I could not fix my problem with gmail.
Could I send you my Eudora.ini and you solve my problem with gmail
please?

My reply was to answer your question about Pandora being able to show
your In and Out mailboxes in the same window: It can show as many
mailboxes as you want.

>For my poor skills I could not fix my problem with gmail.

Did you look at Sid's reply? Your gmail problem may be caused by not
having enabled the setting in gmail to "Let less secure apps access
your account" "less secure" means any client that in not gmail.

Yes, in my web account I set: "Let less secure apps access your
account". But I get always the same problem. Every 5-6 days I have to
renew any certificate.

Have you done that for each of your accounts?

If that is too much work for you, you can install stunnel, a program
that takes care of the certificate hassle.

Sure! I did it with every gmail account.

If it is works, it would be a great news. I found
"stunnel-5.45b6-win64-installer": Is this the right file? When will I
install it I will have to configure it too? I'm afraid I have no
experience about it.

[Ajo Wissink]

I am not using it myself, so I can't help you with that, but I seem to
remember that other members of this newsgroup have posted instructions
on how to install it. If you don't get results here you can subscribe
the (free) more active Eudora-Win mailing list.

I'm using 5.37, don't know how many bits. Very little changes wrt this
stuff, so there is no need to update when new versions come out.
Probably the biggest change was that he set it up for gmail for you, and
don't require you to set that part up in Stunnel (though you do have to
make changes in Eudora). OTOH, for Agent v1.93, an old version written
before SSL existed, I had to add or uncomment lines in stunnel.conf
also.

For versions in the last few years, it normally installs itself as a
service, but I've been using it since SSL first came out (20 years?) and
it used to use a program that was in the Startup folder of Windows, that
started when windows started. It may be that I had to put the program
there, but it worked just as well.

I hope someone can help me as soon as possible.
I have two gmail accounts and from some days I am able to download
the messages with one only. With oter account I get this error:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/nxx1d95a2l0l8p5/Eudora%20catt.JPG?dl=0

I assure you the accounts both are configured the same. Maybe gmail
blocked me because I used that account out of home? I used it in
another place. I don't know if it is the reason even because if I go
into web gmail I see bpth accounts are configured the same.
Look: https://www.dropbox.com/s/xnacmr8wr8uv2fw/GMAIL%20catt.JPG?dl=0
Maybe is there another option to come out from thar problem?
Thanks

That link goes in security account options but everything is OK. But
my gmail account doesn't work with Eudora 7.

[Sid Elbow]

Perhaps you should read what Dennis is suggesting instead of being so
dismissive. Either that or explain what you mean by "everything is OK".

Gmail security has to be set to insecure client (or whatever their
terminology is - it's been a long time) in order to work with Eudora.

Yes, all of them except Gmail.

I gather yahoo has the same problems as aol/verizon, but they are not
especially related to Eudora.

So, all of them but gmail, yahoo, aol, and verizon.

I use Fastmail for $30 a year.
