Does anyone have an example of a .pinerc file that can directly download
imap mail from Gmail using an application specific password?

I use these two for my institutional account managed by Gsuite (so domain in name@domain is NOT gmail.com)

The first entry is one incoming folder. It sees the content of the Gsuite INBOX (and only that) for the 5 minutes when an incoming message stays there.

My default arrangement is to move all valid mail locally to my machine with a crontab-operated fetchmail every 5 min

The second is a folder collection. I use it to access any other Gsuite folder but inbox. Since I do not keep any serious message on gmail for more than 24 hours, this is used: (a) to check the Spam folder; (b) to expunge the Bin folder, where message retrieved by fetchmail are temporarily "deleted"

Gsuite {imap.gmail.com:993/ssl/novalidate-cert/notls/user=name@domain}

"All Gsuite" {imap.gmail.com:993/ssl/notls/user=name@domain}[[Gmail]]/[]


details on my useage of fetchmail are in here
