Public bug reported:
I get an error "Secure connection failed" whenever I attempt to
authenticate to accounts that are hosted by Google. This affects
gmail.com addresses and addresses in other domains that use Google
Workspaces. I am able to connect to other mail servers (e.g. ones
running dovecot).
In order to make sure the problem wasn't caused by any plugin, etc. that
I had installed, I reinstalled the packages and moved aside the
~/.thundirbird directory.
The problem still occurs doing the account setup phase for the Google
accounts. I enter the name, address, password in the main Thunderbird
window, and then get a pop-up window that asks for account name and
password again. After entering that, it proceeds to ask me if I want to
allow Thunderbird permission to access mail, calendars, etc., and it
then asks me to do the two-factor authentication. It's after I do the
two-factor authentication and click the button to indicate that I have
done so that I get the error.
There should not be any outbound firewall rules blocking connections to
Google servers. IPv6 does not work properly from this network, but I
don't have any known problems with IPv4 connections to Google.
