Hi, I'm installing Thunderbird on my MacBook Pro (Apple M3). I've a mail account on GMAIL with OAuth2 and I've already correctly settled the "cookies" and the Javascript issues in SETTINGS. The popup window with my correct email address opens and I can click for having the new window to open for insert my password on "imap.gmail.com", but this new window in an empty one without any field where to add the password. In my old MacBook (Intel processor) everything works fine. I've imported the whole profile from the old to the new MacBook and it also does not work (same settings, thus). Any suggestion? Thanks giovanni

Sei in buona compagnia. Sono dabberi molti gli utenti che stanno avendo problemi con Gmail da quando è stato reso obbligatorio l'uso di Oauth. Qui trovi una lunga discussione in merito -> https://forum.mozillaitalia.org/index.php?topic=76522.0

Qui trovi una guida passo a passo: -> https://forum.mozillaitalia.org/index.php?topic=76956.0

Se hai attiva l'autenticazione a due fattori, puoi prendere in considerazione l'uso delle password per applicazione: -> https://support.google.com/a/answer/9003945?hl=it

Di più non saprei dirti perché non ho un Mac e non ho quindi modo di fare delle prove.

The problem is in this image. The screen from Google to put the credentials does not appear. I've not found any help on line. Thanks giovanni

Giovanni ho capito, ma come ti ho detto io non posso fare nessun test non avendo un mac. Poi, perché continui in inglese se stai postando nella sezione di lingua italiana? La sezione in lingua inglese è qui -> https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/
