Older version of Apple Mail (ver 11.5) and new Telus Gmail issues
So I'm pretty choked about this move to Gmail Gsuite. I have a 9 year old Macbook and running Mail version 11.5. After trying every suggestion that I could find on the Telus and Apple support pages, I still cannot get Mail to link in with the Telus Gmail. I get the "triangle with exclamation point" indicating that I am unable to correct to that server. Yet I have no problem linking to a "regular" Gmail account to the Mail program - Gmail is an account I use solely for spammy emails from Facebook and non-essential groups (apparently I have over 1200 unread messages, so I had better clean that up!). My Telus account is for my serious email, like bills and my volunteer work. While I can check my email using a browser, I absolutely hate the layout and structure of Gmail and prefer using the desktop program that is installed on my device and has functioned perfectly well for 9 years. I prefer the versatility of my Mail program yet Telus seems to be forcing my hand to either use the browser version or (a much more expensive option) to upgrade my MacBook for the sake of having a more recent and hopefully compatible Mail program. Any Apple users running older Mail out there who have figured out how to get around the "offline" issue and can help me out? Thanks!Solved3.4KViews0likes1Comment
