Can't create account on Dekko 2
-
In addition, if you have 2 factor authentication set up for your google account you will need to set an application password to use with Dekko2.
-
@arubislander what is an application password?
-
@mohsen You only need that if you have two factor authentication turned on. It's another layer of security. What you will need to do however, is grant permission to insecure apps on your Google account security settings. Google doesn't like non Google apps and brands them all as risky. UT isn't and neither is dekkk2.
If you do use Two factore authentication there's the Authenticator app in the app store. -
@Lakotaubp I don't know why i can't connect to imap.googlemail.com.
without tor connection.
with tor connection.
-
I think i have no 2-step verification.
-
@mohsen You would know if you had 2FA on as you would have to set it up. If you can try another way than tor to connect that might be an issue. Also check your settings against a fully working version of a Google account on another device.
Edit You tried the tor thing already sorry didn't notice. -
Just looked on a bigger screen and I noticed the sign in from less secure apps message. That is what you need to change. Do a Google search for how to allow less secure apps. It's in the security section somewhere but can't remember exactly how to do it. It is just a toggle switch that needs moving then that should sort it.
-
Also, browsing to imap.google.com will not work, irrespective if the destination is reachable or not. Browser do not support the IMAP protocol.
-
@Lakotaubp thank you man. it worked.
-
and thanks all you. but why dekko is less secure app? whiles other apps like mailspring isn't like this.
-
@mohsen Glad your sorted
