I'll see what I can do... So had to change the password on one of my e.Mail (gmail) accounts due to potential security breach. Did that via browser and settings.
I then opened Evolution. The other accounts all synchronized, bar the one I needed to change. I got a message to enter my password, which I did. It then gave me another window that listed all the permissions and at the bottom "Allow", which I ticked I then get another window with a very long code and a message to enter the code in the account settings, but there is no where in Evolution or Google settings for it..... I don't know what to do. Last point: Online Accounts: I have used that in the past, BUT it does not exist anymore. I am sure I read somewhere it was being discontinued.. I still have it listed in Synaptic Package Manager, but when I try and open it it just opens a settings window and there is nothing in there. Seen this before on other machines, same problem, Online Accounts does not work. Does this help? best J On Sat, 28 Jul 2018 at 09:53, Andre Klapper <ak...@gmx.net> wrote: > Hi, > > On Fri, 2018-07-27 at 14:33 +0100, Jonathan Harrison via evolution-list > wrote: > > I had to change the password on my gMail account, and now can not > > synchronize with Evolution.
