{{_("Enable Access for Non-Google Apps")}}

By default Google makes accessing your Gmail account difficult for non-Google email programs (or email programs that use less than ideal security settings). You will need to follow these steps to get your account working with Mailpile.

  1. Go to the Google accounts website, http://accounts.google.com/
  2. If you haven't already, log in.
  3. Click the "Security" button on the top center of the screen.
  4. Click into the "Enable Less Secure Apps" item
  5. Select "Enable" from the list
