“get imap mail” activity not working getting a credentials error
it was working before with no errors for about a month and 2 hrs ago it starts getting this error
i tried the credentials manually and it is working.
gmail is enabled with IMAP Connection and less secure apps in gmail is enabled
Here’s the inputs for the activity
i also tried port(143,465) they aren’t working too with different errors
what could be wrong???

@Max_Carne_Jnr
thanks alot for sharing it
it’s working now and i didn’t change anything, so Probably it was because of those issues.

it works fine now .
if it crashed again i will try this … Thanks a lot
