Q: Upgraded to Mountain Lion a week ago suddenly unable to receive incoming emails from Mail.6

Upgraded to Mountain Lion a week ago.  Suddenly unable to receive incoming emails from Mail.6

 

Can successfully send outgoing messages. 


Have completed following tasks to no avail:


1)          When click on "Take all accounts online" and entering password for gmail / looking at Mail Connection Doctor: Got Green light, Mail was able to connect to the Internet. But

"Trying to log in to this Goggle Imap account failed.  Verify username and password are correct."

I have verified username and password being correct. 


2)          System Preferences > Mail, Contacts and Calendars typed in name, email address & gmail password and got this message.

"Unable to verify account name and password."


3)          Mail> preferences>account>password.  Confirmed correct password, name, email address and imap "address" Then to Advanced & confirmed correct port . Restarted computer.


"lay person terms" appreciated. 

 

Thanks!
