        @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 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

                usually when we show our config.js with personal stuff removed, we use … or xxx instead of the default ‘name’ and ‘pw’.

                        @cyrus1337 ok, I cut/pasted your config, changed to my userid and password…

                        failed… module imap not found…

                        had to run npm install from the modules/email folder…

                        restart mirror…

                        note: this only shows NEWLY arriving email… i don’t know how the mail drops off, as it hasn’t updated for me… 5 emails shown…

                                  Looks good. What happens when you send a new mail to the emailaddress when the logs shows listening for email?

                                    I could try that :) Also, I have 1 unread email in the folder. But I’m trying to send an email to myself tonight and see what happens.

                                    I’ll call you tonight

                                      I sent you an email earlier. Unfortunately, the module still does not show an email and it still says “load”

                                      :(

                                        I deleted the folder “email” again and then reinstalled the module. I do not know what the warnings after npm install mean:

                                          @cyrus1337 the warnings mean nothing for users.

                                          This module will ONLY show email that arrives AFTER it is started.

                                            ok, all right :) but I am not yet. The module will simply not load an email
