Description Antonio Rojas 2018-07-26 21:40:12 UTC

In 18.08 beta, I'm constantly being nagged by Google authentication dialogs for my gmail accounts. Every few hours an authentication window pops up for each account and I am required to authenticate.

Comment 1 Daniel Vrátil 2018-08-27 21:42:29 UTC

This should be hugely improved in 18.08 final release and further improved in the next version.

Make sure you also use your full email address as an username (incl. @gmail.com).

Please reopen if this still happens in 18.08 stable and the full username.

Adding @gmail.com to the username fixes it, yes. However, I had backported 8e7dfb8696c8eb40c20ce46c532b2fcd10edf483 (which IIUC is supposed to fix this when not using @gmail.com) and didn't work.
