Check whether an app password is available

Google app passwords require 2-Step Verification. The option may be unavailable for managed accounts, Advanced Protection or accounts configured with security keys only. For a work or school mailbox, ask the administrator about permitted access.

Set up and test

  1. If Google permits an app password for your account, create one for the mail app.
  2. Add the full Gmail address to Postosha using your provider-approved method. Use Google’s current server settings when entering them manually.
  3. Test receiving, sending, an attachment and reconnection after restarting.

If your account requires OAuth

If Google requires OAuth sign-in and that option is unavailable in your Postosha setup, ask your administrator about an approved mail client. Keep your account protection enabled; do not bypass the policy to connect.
