For anyone else interested. I have a Google POP3 account working…how?
Set up two accounts. One is a google authenticated version. The other is a POP3. When you set it up, you get the auth. Then, I set the authenticated version version to not check mail, but leave it there. And the POP3 keeps checking.

If you are currently using a Gmail account in eM Client manually configured as POP where you are logging in via a legacy username and password then that will completely stop at the end of Sept 2024 as per the Google support page info below.
(Extract from the above Google support page).
“Starting on September 30, 2024, less secure apps, third-party apps, or devices that have you sign in with only your username and password will no longer be supported for Google Workspace accounts. For exact dates, visit Google Workspace Updates. To continue to use a specific app with your Google Account, you’ll need to use a more secure type of access that doesn’t share password data. Learn how to use Sign in with Google”.
So for eM Client, you should now be using Gmail as an IMAP account, which is setup “via the automatic account wizard” as per the following eM Client webpage example.
Ah - is that all accounts or just workspace accounts?
Ah - is that all accounts or just workspace accounts?
All Google accounts as far as I know.
If you need any further info on that, suggest to contact Google via their official Gmail community forum.
