Do you have any issues with Gmail in Opera? share with us in comments.
Was excited to read of this solution. And had a question about it.
However, I am unable to get it to work. I keep getting the following message, even though my account name and password are entered correctly:
“The IMAP server reported an error.
Application-specific password required: http://support.google.com/accounts/bin/answer.py?answer=185833 (Failure)”
Any idea what to do about that?
Now, the question I had:
Will my Gmail phone work through Opera with this set-up? I use it for texting to (and from) the Philippines frequently. And use it as the phone number I give those whose calls I definitely want to screen — such as marketers whose online forms insist upon a phone number.
