Do you have an antivirus other than defender? Or a VPN?

Yes but when I set up my first email there was no problem

TB will test the connection as the profile is being created. Was that okay? Is this POP or IMAP? Have you changed the Gmail settings to allow for an offline email client? https://support.google.com/mail/answer/7104828?hl=en

In setup new account Thunderbird show successfully found email but when it goes to verify with Google the error 400 appears from Google. Please see attached pre test works but done is greyed out What am I doing wrong. Rick

Gmail requires a change in the permissions on its email accounts to facilitate offline email clients. Have you changed the permissions as in the url file sent?

No, I would not even know where to find it.

Excuse me if this has already registered but I can't see my post. The IMAP settings and how to get Gmail to allow an IMAP offline client are here: https://support.google.com/a/answer/10547014?hl=en

Found it and changed it still not working see attached error 400

If I was in that situation, I would be trying one change in one of the values until I found something that worked. Short of that, I don't have a solution.

Thanks for your help, I did try that with no luck. I think the problem is with the Google server. I have given up on this project for now.

Happy New year, Rick
