I migrated a to Gmail month ago and had a consultant help set me up as POP on Apple Mail. Have been sending and receiving without problems until today.
As of this morning, when I try to send a message, I am prompted to enter my password. I enter it and get message "Unable to verify account name or password." The message sits in the Outbox and doesn't get sent.
I have not changed my password in the past 4 weeks. As a double-check that my password is still recognized by Telus, I logged out and back in via Google instead of Apple Mail. I can log in to Google with my Telus password.
But I don't want to use Gmail, I want to use Apple Mail. What changed overnight that I can no longer send in Apple Mail? I can still receive in Apple Mail.
Don't know whether to contact Telus or Apple, and feel that both will direct me to the other. Any clues? Is it because I'm set up as POP (I know, I know, against all recommendations)?
