Hi,
Thank you all for the reports
There is about a dozen in my mailbox as well, just today, even though the update was released on Feb 25th, a week ago.
The latest update does not have any changes related to IMAP authentication.
I have not had reports of broken IMAP authentication with any other mail service since the update, except occasional glitches (e.g. Gmail's "too may simultaneous sessions", or Yahoo's famous "OFC12" which have nothing to do with the app).
Searching the web I found cases of iCloud authentication failing in the past with other mail apps, for example:
http://www.justanswer.com/mac-computers/6hjwh-getting-authentication-failure-message-when-attempting.htmlhttp://sparrowmail.tenderapp.com/kb/common-issues/icloud-in-sparrowSuggestions:
- Logging into your @mac.com email on Apple's web site (just in case Apple needs some sort of re-validation)
- Contacting Apple support (just in case Apple's server settings changed)
Has anyone done this?
More:
- Bringing up account setup for the account in AquaMail, and trying to verify the settings -- is there a more detailed error message there?
(there would be, if the server "explains" why authentication failed)
Has anyone done this?
- Creating a debug log capturing this error, as described on my support page:

I don't have any Apple devices myself, so no @mac.com address. If necessary, I'll go and purchase an i*something just so I can see the error myself...
... but could someone help troubleshoot this issue in a constructive way?
Finally, @NJRonbo -- yes, I try to read these forums, but it takes me several hours a day to respond just to personal email messages about AquaMail... And then, I have a to-do list about 6 pages long, which also needs my attention...
I'll be posting updates here as I get more information.
