Hello,
Regarding Gmail, I can't add an additional email account.
Every time I go to settings/email accounts/add an email account/
a window opens, I enter the email address
then the username
then the password

and then I get: "The server has denied POP3 access for the specified username and password."

yet the password and username are correct!!!

What is it due to?

Thank you in advance for your help

Configuration: Windows / Chrome 64.0.3282.186

    Hello,

    The issues can be multiple, so I suggest you follow this link to perform the necessary checks for adding your email account:

    If everything is correct and you still cannot log in, try using IMAP.

    Based on the results, please post your feedback.
