I presume that all of your email accounts are having this problem.

Have you tried doing a "reboot" of your computer?

The accounts you have in POP Peeper are Gmail accounts - right?

Are you able to log-in to these accounts on the web (Internet) using your browser? (if not let us know why you are not able to login on the web)

If you can, that is your are able to access your Gmail accounts on the web (that is successfully login), then try doing a reset of Oauth2 (you should be getting errors in POP Peeper if you need to reset Oauth2, so I'm not sure why this not the case) - but it's worth a try.

You do this by editing each of the problem accounts and clicking on the drop-down to the right of the "Login name" and selecting the "Oauth2" option and continue with each of the steps that follow.

Let us know exactly what you get (what happens) when you try doing this.

Please read this in the POP Peeper forum "Announcements": Gmail password login (requires Oauth2) (I'm not sure why you're not getting any errors however - which you should be if you need to reset "Oauth2" for your Gmail accounts) - that said, try what I've posted below that illustrates how to start the process of resetting the "Oauth2" function for each of the accounts that are not working.

Edit the account (right-click on the account in the left "Accounts" pane of the main POP Peeper Interface and select the "Edit" option) to reset the "Oauth2" option to "allow" POP Peeper access to your Gmail account(s).
Edit the account - select "Oauth2" from drop-down list and follow through with the remaining steps to process the Oauth2 reset.

After entering the "Edit" mode for one of your Gmail accounts and selecting "Oauth2" from the drop-down - like you have already you will get at least some of the following steps to complete the "Oauth2" process (keep in mind some steps may not occur - ignore the steps if this is the case):

NOTE SOME OF THESE STEPS MAY NOT OCCUR
- SO ONLY DO WHAT STEPS THAT YOU DO ENCOUNTER AS INSTRUCTED IN THE SCREEN-SHOTS

PIC-1 after editing and selecting 'Oauth2' click 'Yes' to this prompt.png
The above is where you left off and is what you do from here on out (if the steps below occur - some may not)
PIC-2 click on 'OK' button.png
PIC-3 click on 'OK' button.png
NOTE: YOU MAY NOT SEE SOME OF THE NEXT SCREEN-SHOTS (IF YOU DO NOT IGNORE THESE STEPS ENTERED HERE) In the event you do see any of these prompts it may not be in the order I've listed them DO WHAT IS INSTRUCTED IN THE SCREEN-SHOTS IN THE EVENT YOU DO ENCOUNTER ANY OF THESE SCREEN-SHOTS
This step (ABOVE) and including the next 3 steps after this may NOT OCCUR go to the next step you encounter to complete the 'Oauth2' process
This step (ABOVE) and including the next 3 steps after this may NOT OCCUR go to the next step you encounter to complete the 'Oauth2' process
IF you get this do step 1 and step 2.png
IF you get this - follow directions to get 'verified'.png
Note: Completion of the "Oauth2" procedure will include the next steps up until you get the "successfully" completed message
YOU SHOULD GET THE FOLLOWING STEPS IF THE PROCESS COMPLETES SUCCESSFULLY
This page should open in your (default) browser
This page should open in your (default) browser

This step (above) should occur in your (default) browser - you must reply as illustrated in the screen-shot
This step (above) should occur in your (default) browser - you must reply as illustrated in the screen-shot
If the "Oauth2" process completes successfully you will encounter this prompt in POP Peeper
If the "Oauth2" process completes successfully you will encounter this prompt in POP Peeper
You are done at this point
Check to see if this account will do a "Mail Check"

On a side note: you may encounter other dialogs as well such as (don't be concerned about the screen-shot below if they do not occur):
If you do encounter a "code verification" procedure simply complete the steps that occur (examples below) IGNORE THE SCREEN-SHOT BELOW IF THEY DO NOT OCCUR
You may encounter "code" requirement steps to further verify you - if so simply step through the procedures as they occur

sportman -- In the screenshot you posted, it looks like the account may not be enabled (it's hard to tell for certain because the "Oauth2" window is partially covering it). So edit the account and make sure that the "enabled" checkbox is checked. Then press "Update" and do a check mail.

^ That would be why sportman13 is not getting any errors.
Jeff noticed that it appears the account you used in your screen-shot is not 'enabled' - accounts must be enabled to use them
