Really ticked off - I am getting nowhere and cannot sort an issue out -
I have Windows Live mail I have a couple of Gmail accounts one of which works (or appears to work fine in Live mail the other I continually get the above error code.
I can access my Gmail from the web browser so no issues there but I cannot do anything in live mail - it simply keeps rejecting my login
Configuration:
Account: Gmail (rouallem1)
Server: imap.gmail.com
Username: rouallem1
Protocol: IMAP
Port: 993
Secure(SSL): 1
Code: 800cccd1
I have deleted the account from my Live mail a couple of times trying various fixes. but nothing appears to work I also get an invalid password on my Samsung GT -C3530
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Did you? The link will take you to the Gmail login page, where you'll be asked to re-enter your password. The error code (0x800CCCD1) only means that log-in failed.
This situation usually arises when you have enabled two-step verification for the account. Dumb mail clients (and smart phones) don't know how to request and submit security codes, so you have to generate a unique app password to use instead of the combination of user-defined password and security code.
Yeah , I tried that it doesnt work !
I cannot read Gmail anywhere but in the web browser.
It doesnt work under Live Mail nor on the mobile phone. I have wasted so much time - I am not stupid but I am begining to think that GMAIL is a pile of ****.
