    Windows LIve Mail / Gmail

    OK thanks for that - look like I have to eiether ditch gmail or ditch Windows Live Mail and although I am angry at gmail (google) for doing what they did I don;t want to 'cut off my nose to spite my face' so I will need to get an email clinet server that will work on my PC that gamil is happy with . . . what is that software?

    Windows LIve Mail / Gmail

    I am running W10 on a PC. I've used Windows Live Mail for years (I like it and don't want to change). Last week WLM would not download mail from the google server stating that the username and password were wrong. (I can access that mail by logging into gmail via the internet using same username and password). I spent a day trying to fix it and failed). The next day it was working fine. and worked as normal for a week. Yesterday. mid day after being good in the morning, it did the same thing (failed to download mail from the google server suggested that the username and password were wrong). I left it overnight and today it still fails . . . why / what is going on?

    gmail no longer works in windows live mail

    Mail no longer displays Gmail account, but seems to recognize it.

    I did Windows Update 13 July 2018. Today the Mail app no longer displays my gmail account. Windows LIve account is visible but not gmail. I tried removing and then adding Gmail account again but Gmail still does not show up on the accounts list.
    I can log into google directly and access gmail, but right now I cannot use Mail to access my gmail account. HELP!
