can't access my messages in seamonkey
Rosemarie Chavarria
Hi, everyone,
I can't find any of my messages in seamonkey. What could I be doing wrong? I tried signing in to my gmail account but seamonkey wouldn't accept the information when I know it's correct. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for your help in advance.

Just a thought but do you have the allow less secure apps turned on in your Gmail settings? I am not sure apps like Sea Monkey will be allowed to access your Gmail unless you specifically allow it. You may have to go to the Gmail website and check your settings/notifications. David Griffit My Blind Access and Guide dog Blog

To be honest, I had the same issue with my pop/imap accounts imap does not notify me in thunderbird for some reason when all the mail is done.

So one of my accounts used pop, I had another work one I don't use, in the end I set it to imap at first, then deleted and reinstalled thunderbird, then deleted all accounts and made the other one come back up and a few other things. Its happened twice in the last month and I have no idea why, the issue seems resolved now though.

I always turn this off as it seems to be a menace rather than a feature, what they seem to mean is that unless you use their online system it might not work.

To be fair on more modern clients it is no problem. So in Windows Mail on Windows 10 and my Mac machine you simply get passed through to the Gmail website where you have to confirm that this is a change that you wreally want to make. Then you are returned to your app and all works well but you get a security email telling you that your email is being accessed in another client/machine which in these days when so many email accounts get hacked, is probably understandable. I saw a thread on another list only yesterday where somebody has had their email hacked and spam mails were being sent out in his name. David Griffith

I didn't think of that. I'll give it a shot and see what happens.

Hi Rose Marie,
Strange, it's not the first time that I've heard an seen on 2 separate but recent occasions that G mail, Thunderbird, and sea monkey have some sort of issue, whether it be signing in, sending or receiving messages. I wish I had an answer for you about this
but I'm at a loss.

Hi
I just checked and it looks like there are extra steps you have to do now to get your g mail emails. It looks like it is in the g mail account.
The following link from Mozilla should help you and later on today i will follow the directions to set up my g mail account as well then link the extra to the page on thunder bird.
The link to this page is http://pop2imap.com/thunderbird-gmail.php Gene nz

The problem I have with all online email is that your address book is on line 24/7, and hence anyone that might want to has all day to hack, if you keep it locally and do not leave your device on line at all times this is not the case.

It is odd as as long as Imap and pop3 are enabled and you tick the right bits, I even have no issues on old Outlook Express, which has to be older code than the Mozilla clients.
