The patches that are currently used are visible in the VCS. https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-mozilla/icedove.git/tree/debian/patches > Same problem for me. > I tested the version of debian stable, every is working fine there. > I also tested the official thunderbird version. Everything is also > working fine I don't know until now that there are "business" email accounts available in GMail. So currently I can't readjust this situation. You booth don't explain what the different steps are against the normal email accpunt in Google and there it exactely breaks. You can do some logging to see probbaly what's going on under hood like cescribed in the wiki. https://wiki.debian.org/Icedove#Debugging_Icedove_Activity Please do at least some logging and try investigate the situation better. Note that the logs may contain some private data before sending! Regrads Carsten
