[QUOTE="zschwarzmiller, post: 1129062, member: 131341"] Hello, So I am having a huge issue with my Mail Application. I am using Mac OS X Version 10.6.4 and Mail 4.3 Somehow overnight of me leaving my laptop on, doing nothing... Has given me this new error and will not load new emails. I can still send emails from my mail account but I cannot download any new ones. here is the specific error message: "Logging in to the Gmail IMAP server "imap.gmail.com" failed. Make sure the user name and password you entered are correct, then click continue. If the information isn't correct, you cannot receive messages." So... I know for a FACT this password is correct. I have even went in and changed my gmail password and then tried that new one I changed it to, NO DICE. This is really frustrating, and I am HATING having a MAC at the moment as I don't know how to fix it. I also tried to download Thunderbird to try that out as well, but the same issue.... What is wrong with my computer??? I know for fact I am typing in the correct password. If anyone has any information at me you would be helping me out soo much. Thanks [/QUOTE]
