create an application-specific password to use IMAP once I've enabled
2-factor authentication. (I don't know where I got "authentification"
from ... fingers on auto-pilot, I guess.)
I've done this. I created an application password

When I view messages I often (but not always) get some "/" escape
characters. Often "/302" but some other numbers also. And I often get
a red cross on white background on line breaks.
These are varieties of html, rtf, etc? Is there a simple catch-all to
remove all such characters from text mes
I seem to get "\302" when there's a doubled space after a period.
It's a \, not a / (as I previously stated).

Well I'm still flummoxed a bit as I'm almost 100% sure nothing has changed
