Running openbsd ver 5.9 Using getmail and mutt decided to add my google account to the getmailrc file
i.e. getmail -nv --rcfile blablabla --rcfile blablabla1 In getmail I tried simple pop3SSL and simple IMAPSSL both attempts resulted in google errors.... After reading googles docs ...... I toggled my GMAIL server account settings to allow pop downloads with **** "A reduced security setting" **** following this all mail downloaded from GMAIL to getmail to the appropiate mail directories. Taken into account GMAIL's reputation can anyone shed light on Why this happens with getmail and GMAIL. Thanks in Advance L)
