Google App Password not acepted when updating from Email
So, I can update fanfics that are already in my archive but when I try to get story URLs from Email I get this error:
imaplib.IMAP4.error: b'[AUTHENTICATIONFAILED] Invalid credentials (Failure)'
I know it isn't that Fanficfare can't connect to my account because when I use my gmail password it tells me that an app password is needed - meaning it recognizes the email account I'm attempting to access.
I've changed my password and Google App password a few times, added and removed the spaces in said password and turned 2 factor authentication on and off but it doesn't get through.
I haven't updated from my email in a few months so I missed out on the Google App password shift and all the changes that came with it. Did I miss out on something else that needs to be altered?
Note:
on the google side of things I made the password under the app name FanFicFare so unless the name the password is formed under is significant...
