I've had MailMate ask for my password in four of my Google Apps accounts (three of them two-factor) a total of at least 8 times today. Has anyone else had any issues?

I've been watching this thread since it started and feeling fortunate that I have not had any issues with 10 gmail accounts I have.

So I'm sitting in front of my Mac when all of a sudden at 0127 i received emails and text messages from google on 5 of the accounts. The messages read as follows;

_Hi Richard,_

_Someone just used your password to try to sign in to your Google Account xxxxxxx...@gmail.com, using an application such as an email client or mobile device._

I also have a number of Gmail accounts configured for MailMate, and until this morning, no problem at all.

Then, rather swiftly, all of my accounts started having the same issue as previously discussed by others.

This leads me to believe that either Google had an "issue" with their OAuth token handling, or, they have been deploying something in different regions over the course of the last few days.

One thing that triggered the same issue as you, Richard, was deployment of IPv6 support. Depending on $factors, sometimes my systems would be able to get an IPv6 connection to Gmail, other times it would only be IPv4 - but some IPv6 changes at my provider level also meant that every few hours I'd be getting a new /56 delegation (annoying) which resulted in lots of those sorts of messages.

Not sure if that's in any way related to what's been going on with MailMate and Gmail the last few days -- my sense is that it's something at the Google end.

After upgrading to the latest beta, and re-authenticating all of my accounts, the prompts have gone away.
