A few things I can think of (which generally reflect your suggestions):
  - username changed in settings or at gmail
  - password changed in settings or at gmail
  - port changed in settings or at gmail (between encrypted and non-encrypted, 
for example)
  - DNS problems
  - SSL versus startTLS
  - change between IMAP and POP3
  - firewall blockage (but not *too* likely, since other servers can be 
accessed)
  - encryption schemes that are no longer valid (like SSL2 or SSL3 but, again, 
not *too* likely*)

P.S. Related to another thread (about email programs), another shortcoming of 
Claws Mail is that there's no way to see/edit *all* a reply's headers; 
otherwise, I would've adjusted this message's Message-id header to match that 
of the O.P.'s message and make this reply appear in the right place in the 
thread. I don't have the original message to reply to.
