1 I have used emclient for over 10 years. Twice paying for payware edition. For the first time 2 days ago, it would not import any new messages. It asked for to enter the “password” to my xfinity account which is my ISP. I spent 7 hours trying different things, with no luck.
2 So I went and downloaded Mailspring and entered the exact Xfinity same username and password and Mailspring wored perfectly and shows all the new messages.
3 Meanwhile emclient has not imported any new messages for 2 days with precisely the same account settings that I put into Mailspring.
4 Remember: I spent hours trying to get emclient to accept my account settings. HOURS!!
5 So, I just will be using Mailspring. My years and years of emclient usage comes to an end.
Thank you. Yes, Xfinity. I read your suggested thread and it fixed my issue. Now eMclient is working correctly again.
There are 3 boxes in emClient General, IMAP, SMTP. sign in and password are the sign ins and passwords that connect you to the Xfinity website when you visit there.
