Dcgmail issues

[AmyRoseFan94]

I recently installed dreampi on my raspberry pi 4. Yesterday I tried to use DCgmail and I'm having issues on the dreamcast side. The web browser (planetweb 2.0 on dreamcast) gives me this message "the email host is busy, please try again." Is anyone else having this issue or is it a configuration issue?

Hey, I just did this last week, and it gave me issues, too. I think the instructions were unclear about when to create your own password vs when to enter the 16-digit generated password during the pi setup. I regret not writing my procedure down. It is easy to tunnel into the pi and run the script again to reconfigure, so you can try it again, then try it differently. Sorry this isn't more specific. Best of luck to ya!

If you have discord I can walk you through it.
Its been awhile since I've last looked at it, but it should prompt you to enter Email, then your email password (The 2-Step Verification password), then you'll enter the password you want to use when you enter the information on your dreamcast so you can set this to whatever you want.

on the dreamcast side, enter your gmail account, enter the local pop password (Whatever one you just made up). The program should give you the ip's to type in for the smtp and pop3

I kinda grasp how to get the script working on the pi side but it's just odd that gmail is spitting back a security email saying it wasn't delivered at all, how odd.

Also, does the fetchmail require any certificates? It has none for fetching any mail from Gmail
