Problem with the Module "email"

[sdetweil]

@cyrus1337 I don’t know anything about this module, but I would guess that your email config is wrong.

The error means the module failed parsing the email data, because there was a connection or permissions error (tls implies ssl connection problem)

I have the config as described on the page https://github.com/ronny3050/email-mirror

{
		        module: 'email',
                position: 'top_left',
                header: 'Email',
                config: {
                    accounts: [

                        {
                            user: 'name@gmail.com',
                            password: 'pw',
                            host: 'imap.gmail.com',
			    port: 993,
                            tls: true,
                            authTimeout: 10000,
                            numberOfEmails: 5,
                        }
                    ],
                    fade: true,
                    maxCharacters: 30
                }
	},

@cyrus1337 and password: ‘pw’ where pw is YOUR EMAIL password, right?

And name@gmail.com is YOUR Gmail username

Genau, das ist das Passwort für den Emailaccount.

Bei user habe ich meine Emailadresse angegeben.

Did you set google security lower than the default. Something with allow third party apps?

Yey, i have set

[cirdan]

@cyrus1337 its an authentication problem. My best guess is an error in typing your userid or password. You can try it with username, without the @gmail.com part

[CyruS1337]

@cirdan Ok, you mean I should just enter the name: Adriano B …

[cirdan]

@cyrus1337 what I mean is e.g. your email is namexxx@gmail.com that you use namexxx as an username in the config. I remember playing with that when getting to module to work

[CyruS1337]

@cirdan I did that. My username in config is adriano.b .....@gmail.com or am I mistaken you?
