Réiteach roghnaithe

For the incoming, use imap.gmail.com on 993, SSL/TLS, OAuth2 authentication, User Name = email address.

For the outgoing use smtp.gmail.com on 465, SSL/TLS, or 587, STARTTLS, OAuth2 authentication, User Name = email address.

Accept cookies in Preferences/Privacy & Security. Remove all passwords from Saved Passwords in Preferences/Privacy & Security, restart TB, enter the account password in the OAuth window.
