Intermittent Mail to Gmail connection issues For last two months or so, connection between Apple Mail and Gmail initially fails, but eventually (10-15 minutes later) resolves itself. I've not had connection issues between the two for years. Apple Help doesn't provide much direction to resolve the issue. I am on the latest version of OS Mojave. How can this be resolved, so that Apple Mail and Gmail will be back to working seamlessly?

mail No incoming emails. I seek some advice from members. I updated OS 12.31 about a week ago. Ever since doing this Apple Mail has not worked as it should. I receive no incoming mail. I have my mail accounts on Gmail synced to my Apple Mail account and usually interact with mail via Apple Mail. I am reduced to using Gmail directly. I have checked all passwords, restarted applications and shut down restated the Macbook a couple of times. However, I can send emails from the Apple Mail interface. Machine: Macbook Pro 8 GB Ram 256HD intel 2019. Mail can't sync with the Gmail server, the message I get is it keeps timing out. Any suggestions? Thank you for your time and skill Phil
