I had the same problem with K@mail setup with error message saying incorrect username & password for my Gmail account. I found post somewhere that mentioned " allow less secure apps access to google" account in privacy and security settings and after turning this on my K@mail account now working with Gmail again. I think Google changed their security settings a couple of months ago as this coincided with my gmail messages stopping in K@mail account. Hope this works for you
