First thing to check would be that Less Secure Apps is enabled here https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps
Optionally you can create an App Password to use in MailWasher https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833?hl=en
Let me know when you have sent the logs, and I'll take a look
Cheers

Re: Mailwasher hangs with gmail pop access
Great thanks.
So I think MW is stalling on the next account in the list, but the messaging in MailWasher makes it seem like it's the GMail account.
That would be the LBC account, go Settings >> Accounts >> for the LBC account select the Incoming tab >> click Advanced >> set the option "This server requires a secure connection (SSL)" >> click OK.
Hopefully that will get it going and remove the stalling.
As an aside, for the other accounts, if you go Settings >> Accounts >> Incoming >> uncheck the option Store Cached Emails >> Save. We find MailWasher to work better with this off, it's not related to the above, just worth mentioning.

In the LBC account I unchecked the option "This server requires a secure connection (SSL)" and then checked again and it solved the problem.
Many thanks for the excellent assistance
