Hello matt.wiggans

while OAuth2 is the preferred auth for Google, it's said (in their doc) that they still support app passwords if you enable 2FA on the account.

Sorry to be dumb. I've gone to settings / general, but cannot find configuration editor or mailnews or loglevel. How do I get to these?

I have gone to settings general but cannot find the configuration editor or loglevel or anything else in search. Sorry to be dumb.

I asked for the configuration editor (that's a button labeled 'Config editor' at the lower end of the tab 'General' of Settings) only because I did not see your last message. So I wanted to get further debugging. But if your original problem is solved, there is no point to do that.
