The server “imap.telus.net” refused to allow a connection
The server “imap.telus.net” refused to allow a connection on the default ports. I get this message when configuring my Telus email on a new Mac Studio Ventura 13.0.1
Solved it. Turns out it is a setting called 'Allow less secure apps" inside gmail that you need to enable for it to work with outlook again!

Confirmed the settings while difficult in Mac mail as the Telus mail is configured through gmail and does not show the settings.

Community Power UserThe problem is that Mail is configured through Gmail and not set up as a non-Gmail account. Gmail and the enterprise type of mail service Telus has through Google aren't exactly the same. I don't have Ventura yet but under the previous version of Mail, if you go to add a new account, choose Other mail account, instead of Gmail, that will give you the ability to customize the server settings.
