I am trying to install my gmail account in Thunderbird, but I keep getting the following error: "Configuration could not be verified - is your username or password wrong?

Username is (myemailhandle)@gmail.com. I've verified that I'm using the correct password.

2-step verification is off, and I have allowed less secure apps, but still get the error.

What exactly are you doing when you're 'trying to install your gmail account in Thunderbird'?

Can you login to your account via webmail?
