titleEnable IMAP

Currently, users must explicitly enable IMAP before they are able to connect Mac Mail, Thunderbird, or another mail client to their account, or to set up their mobile device using the default Gmail settings. This must also be done from the web. Please visit https://support.google.com/mail/troubleshooter/1668960?hl=en#ts=1665018 to see how to enable IMAP.

 

iOS (iPhone, iPad)
