Thunderbird stuck in "sending access information" on Ubuntu / Gmail

more options

Since yesterday, Thunderbird has been really slow and seemingly unable to properly authenticate with our Google Workspace account, but this seems to be happening only on Ubuntu machines, not on Windows. When I tried sending an email, it seemed to work (as I was able to verify on web gmail that it was indeed sent), but it is also stuck on sending access information, and then it will throw an error saying it failed to authenticate against imap.gmail.com

I already removed and re-added the account, but the problem persists. I'm using all default configurations.

Thunderbird Version 128.5.1esr (64 bits) Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS

Thanks.

It seems to have been an outage on gmail's part, because the problem seemed to have solved itself.
