reboot  Mac into SafeBoot Mode and try logging into your email account in the Mail app.

Use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support


reboot as normal.


no change—

disable Safari>Settings -> Advanced and uncheck "Use advanced tracking and fingerprinting protection" and compare your results.


no resolve—delete gmail account from >System Settings>internet accounts. 


with   Safari.app>Settings>Advanced     turned off under Privacy> “Use advanced..”

 now re-add your gmail account






Note—


IMAP accounts stay on the server, so no local loss, when you re-sync


POP accounts download and remove from the server—therefor save your inbox/sent box if you want them


“On My Mac" is just that, local folders you created and moved mail into. So no loss
