Gmail and Google Workspace

Sign in with an app password, or with Sign in with Google.

Gmail works two ways.

With an app password (simplest)

1. Turn on 2-Step Verification for your Google account, if it isn’t on yet.
2. Make an app password at myaccount.google.com/apppasswords. Name it Mailroom.
3. In Mailroom, choose Mailroom › Add Account…, pick Gmail or Google Workspace, and paste the app password.

Google shows the app password once, as 16 letters. Spaces don’t matter.

With Sign in with Google

Click Sign in with Google instead in Add Account. For now this goes through a Google app you register yourself, which takes about 10 minutes: see Sign in with Google, Microsoft or Yahoo.

Your Gmail labels show as folders. For Google Calendar, see Google Calendar.
