CalDav calendars and emails wont work...

When inputing the required fields for a caldav calendar, my prefered way of accessing my google calendars, I always get an error message saying theres something wrong it can't connect. I know the password and caldav address are right as I have them set up in Thinderbird, the password being stored in Keepass. I changed the password to something really easy just incase, "bobbob987", and it still wont work. (Apologies for the double post but I accidently inputed my email address wrong when I registered and there is no way of recovering from this, so I can't gain access to my other account here.)

I am also having problems with email, same issue, can't connect telling me my username/passowrd is wrong. Again I know they are right, due to Keepass. However this time I quickly change my password to "bobbob" and it worked until it said there was a problem with the stmp server.

Is CalDav actually supported? Does firefox OS support decent passwords? I am flat out refusing to change all my passowrds to 6 letters because longer decent passwords aren't supported.

I'm using the ZTE open, FFOS 1.0.1.

Oh and all my passwords are back to being massive and complicated again;)

Hello asmo2

I have set up gmail on my ZTE Open and my password os over 40 characters long with lowercase, uppercase, numbers and punctuation and had no problems.

it did take a few attempts to type it on the keyboard.

Are you using IMAP?
