Trouble logging in to my freemail.hu account

[Maszek]

Hello,

I am using K9 to fetch and send mails from two email accounts @freemail.hu.
Since the latest update to 6.202, I’m getting authentication failure messages

It worked okay in version 6.201

I’ve tried deleting my accounts and start from scratch, to no avail.

The instructions pertaining to my account settings can be found here:

https://accounts.freemail.hu/a/help/faq/clients#uj-feluletu-fiokom-van

Alas, only in Hungarian

The Google translate version is here Freemail - Levelező Kliens beállítása

“I have a new interface account.”

It would be nice if it could be looked into.

I do not think that update to 6.202 is breaking it. But to be sure maybe you can downgrade to version 6.201 again.

For that you could follow this with the version you want to use. Be aware that all your local mails will be gone and have to be downloaded from server again

How to downgrade to an earlier version?

Android does not support downgrading an app. So you have to uninstall the app, then install the old versions you want to continue using. Before doing that, you probably want to export your settings, though. Export K-9 Mail settings Open the drawer Select Settings Select Export settings Tap the Export button Select a destination and tap the Save button Disable auto update in Google Play Open the Play Store app Go to the details page of K-9 Mail Open the “three dots” menu in the upper rig…

But could it be that freemail.hu switched over to OAuth? But as far I could see they wrote (using online translation tool) to use the password you used on portal login.
