A friend recommended Thunderbird to me, I'm an Ubuntu user with Thunderbird version 128.6.0esr
I'm trying to connect to my Gmail account and I'm having a tough time
IMAP is enabled despite what Google says, IMAP wasn't on by default so I turned it on.
There's no "Sign in with Google" in Thunderbird so I just enter the account email and password manually, the good news is Mozilla already configured OAuth2, the bad news is that the window pops up, I log in to Google, hit allow but I get "Unable to log in at server Probably wrong configuration, username or password. "
So I cleared the cookies and allowed all third-party cookies(added it in exceptions with allow, just to be sure), cleared passwords too, and enabled javascript as told by Mozilla, but I still get the same window(this time just the access request came up without requiring username and password) and the same error, I even got an App Password because I do have 2-Step Verification enabled and tried that just to be sure but still the same thing
The funny thing is that I tried Thunderbird on Android and it connected just fine without any additional step
at this point, I'm out of any new ideas and I ask for your help
