Hi there,
I have been able to pick up my sky email through gmail without any problems for ages, as I have more than one email account.
All of a sudden gmail stopped checking the account - I have tried deleting and re-adding the account using the instructions on my sky account (yahoo), but it comes up with an error.
I have changed my sky email password - it lets me log in directly via sky, but won't add to my gmail account.
Is anyone else having issues please?
Thanks in advance.

You need to generate a new mail app password and use that to sign in with, not "your" password for your Sky account.
