Description ida.kenna 2020-09-17 04:36:26 UTC
I have three addresses -- an outlook, a gmail and a mail.com. I'm using Claws Mail on a windows computer, 3.17.4

My gmail fails to connect to imap. However, I've now changed my google app password twice; each time, the connection worked for a few minutes, loaded in emails and everything, but then it just stops working.

None of my email's SMTP are working. My mail.com address receives email, but doesn't send. Each time I try to send an email from each address, it times out before any connection to the SMTP. As far as I can tell, my outlook's IMAP is still working, but no SMTP connection.

When I first started using Claws Mail, everything was working fine -- IMAPs and SMTPs connecting without problems. but then everything started not working.

If you changed nothing in Claws Mail, that indicates a change in the remote servers, or a change in some other part of your system.
