email issue: gmail (imap) for business blocks jolla mail app
asked 2016-05-04 00:02:58 +0200
Hi, today I got a new account on a company that is using google for business, so the email is managed by gmail. I logged in, enabled IMAP, configured the new account on Jolla as IMAP account. When confirming the mail app tries to connect to check the server settings and the password. The password was refused and I immediately received an email from google staing that I tried to connect from an app that is not using the best security standards.
How is that possible? What's "wrong" in the jolla mail app that is leading gmail to believe so?
I don't want to configure the mail as a google account as the Jolla is for private use (and I don't want to sync contacts and calendar to it) but it would be handy to get new email notifications.
I have the latest public SFOS release, 2.0.0.10.
Thank you
Thanks for the report, I've created JB#35099 internally to track this one, and CCed our email expert.
