I recently installed e/OS on my Fairphone 5.
During setup, I added my two Gmail addresses to the required (and non-disabled ) Mail app. Since email configuration was automatic, there were no particular issues.
For a while, I had no issues sending or receiving emails. At least, that’s what I thought.
In fact, I realized I was no longer receiving emails.
By going to Settings/Account and launching manual sync in microG and in each Google account, I noticed that the emails wouldn’t sync. I also had a password error message that kept coming up.
It’s quite difficult for me to describe because I’m not very comfortable with it and a bit lost. I know how to use a phone, but I’m not particularly comfortable delving into the technical depths of email configuration…
I found another thread that apparently addressed the same issue, but with no answer: Gmail connected o "Mail" app not syncing unless I log in to webmail
So, I had to download the GMAIL app, which doesn’t cause any issues, whether receiving or sending. I’d love to continue using the app that comes with e/OS. But as it stands, it’s unreliable.
Is anyone else having the same issue and can share a solution?
