[QUOTE="Stan Islavski, post: 1863195, member: 386364"] Hello all, I have several gmail accounts in my Mac mail client. I've always used Mac mail for all of my email accounts. I am having a problem deleting one of them that I use as a 'burner' account when I sign up for something on the web which requires an email. I've tried all the regular methods of deleting this account and have had no luck. When I go to system preferences--->internet accounts and highlight this particular gmail account, uncheck the 'mail' app and click on the minus button in the lower left corner, I get a message after some amount of time saying 'cannot verify this account name or password'. Here is a link to a [URL='https://dennisroliff.com/samples/gmail-removal-issue-002.jpg']step by step process illustration that I've been doing for your visual reference[/URL] So, if someone knows a way to delete this account using a terminal command, that would be quite helpful. Thanks. Dennis [/QUOTE]
