I can create it again, but I just tested and gmail is for sure still working. There's likely something wrong in your setup. Hit me up on discord and I can look over it with you if you'd like.

Hello! I also am trying to setup an email to send and receive messages, and I was able to send an email from the Dreamcast, but I can't seem to find any received when I send to my new Dreamcast email. What could be wrong with the setup? Thank you <3

Are you using a raspberry pi 4 or pi zero 2 ? If so unfortunately it's a known issue at the moment that is being researched.

The pi3 - pi 1 build should work fine though. Sorry for inconvenience.

I'm actually using a Pi 3 Model B; could I be using the wrong DreamPi software?

After investing this it appears all newly created Gmails have pop disabled, you'll need to turn this back on

https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#settings/fwdandpop
and select - Enable POP for all mail (even mail that's already been downloaded)
