Also using fastmail.com I have the feeling they may some time require two part authentication, hope mutt will support that. It is a paid service but not expensive. extremely reliable and they even admit when they do have problems.

Here's the rest of that story too. I went as far as enabling two-step authentication in February of 2018. Last week I tried logging into my google account. My password was complex and 20 characters in length the last time I logged into that account successfully. Last week the password had been changed and whoever did that had it shortened to 14 characters. I ended up deleting my account. If I ever create another google account I will not use any of google's enhanced security features since all of them only provide the authorized users a huge amount of hassle and are trivial for hackers to crack. > > > > On Sun, 10 Jun 2018, Chuck Hallenbeck wrote: > > > > > Date: Sun, 10 Jun 2018 20:14:48 > > > From: Chuck Hallenbeck <chuckhallenbeck@xxxxxxxxx> > > > To: "speakup@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <speakup@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > > Subject: command line email clients and gmail.com > > > > > > Hi folks, > > > > > > On my archlinux system with its command line environment, I have > > > three email clients able to send mail directly to my gmail smtp server > > > at port 587. > > > > > > 1. mutt with msmtp. > > > > > > 2. alpine > > > > > > 3. edbrowse. > > > > > > All three methods work only when my google account security settings > > > have enabled something called "Allow access by less secure apps. > > > > > > Recently I have been asked by google to disable that feature for > > > security reasons, but doing so prevents my outgoing mail from being > > > accepted by smtp.gmail.com. > > > > > > Anybody else able to use gmail.com with that security feature > > > disabled, as google advises?
