@CyruS1337 I assume that you meant that you replace your password with the generated key? When you run pm2 logs what do you get? Does it show anything for email? Have you in the /modules/email folder run npm install?

@CyruS1337 I just setup the module and created my app key and email is working for me.

And my config: I also had to change fade to false in order for email to display properly

                module: 'email',
                position: 'top_right',
                header: 'Email',
                config: {
                         accounts: [
                                {
                                        user: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxx@gmail.com',
                                        password: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
                                        host:'imap.gmail.com',
                                        port: 993,
                                        tls: true,
                                        authTimeout: 10000,
                                        numberOfEmails: 5,
                                }
                        ],
                        fade: false,
                        maxCharacters: 30
                }
        },

@sdetweil Strange. I had to generate a key to get email to work. Not sure why you guys don’t see the option.

Edit:
Maybe because your 2FA is turned off.

@MisterT Great it worked for you. Please mark the post as Resolved if you are happy that it worked.

@CyruS1337 No problem:
When loggin into gmail, on the right hand side there is the “hamburger menu”:

When you click that you get a list of apps, select Account from there. On the left click security:

On the right you will see Signing into Google. Click on the “>” on the line “App Passwords”

On the next screen enter your password and then on the next screen you will be able to create the key.

@MisterT You will not lose your modules and configs.

@MisterT You could also just do a git reset --hard and then git pull $$ npm install. I have had this issue every time I had to update my mirror.

@CyruS1337 In gmail, you need to select the Google Apps menu:

Next click on Account. On the left hand side click on Security.
On the right Select App Passwords and create a password for your app. Copy that key into your mirror where you need to enter the password and that should work.

@CyruS1337 With gmail you have to create an application key on gmail itself. Your email account password would not work.

@sdetweil I love this. Gone from MMM-dropbox to weather module…:grinning_face: :smiling_face_with_open_mouth: :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes:
