**My idea is:** Google Workspace no longer supports the username and password, and the configuration for IMAP needs to be done through API, see the following docs:- 1- [Google Workspace Updates: Beginning September 30, 2024: third-party apps that use only a password to access Google Accounts and Google Sync will no longer be supported](https://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/2023/09/winding-down-google-sync-and-less-secure-apps-support.html) 2- [Transition from less secure apps to OAuth - Google Workspace Admin Help](https://support.google.com/a/answer/14114704?sjid=7375633729147403208-EU) 3- [Managing POP and IMAP  |  Gmail  |  Google for Developers](https://developers.google.com/workspace/gmail/api/guides/pop_imap_settings) **I think these groups of people would benefit from this idea:** Anyone uses Google Workspace **Are you willing to work on this idea?:** I’m willing to help **What skills and resources do you need to explore this further?** Just where how to change such thing without breaking the app
