Gmail blocking mutt

August 9, 2022 by Magenaut

When I try to log in to gmail with mutt, it flashes a quick Webalert with a url, something like accounts.gmail.com or something. It’s too quick for me to see or copy it. Then it says Login failed.

mutt responsive way to refresh inbox

August 6, 2022 by Magenaut

Using mutt with Gmail I “check for e-mail updates” sometimes through the $ binding (sync-mailbox), sometimes just by using c (change folder) and just supplying = (defaults to MAILBOX) as the IMAP folder path to change to.
