Nice to see the introduction of App-passwords.
@Team_Vivaldi is there a grace-period on existing Mail/Calender access (transitioning to App-Passwords) to accept the main account-password-only credentials?
Did not find any mention, but I may have missed it…This is entirely dependent on whether or not you have enabled 2FA for your account.
The moment you enable 2FA in your profile, your account password will stop working for login to mail and caldav, and you must use either an app password or OAuth. If you were (for some reason) to later disable 2FA, the account password would work as before.

Great to hear you support TFA!
I just tried to activate this for my account, but it keeps telling me my password is incorrect when clicking on "Activate two factor authentication" in my profile.
I tried logging out and deleting my cookies. Login worked fine with the same password, however so far I'm unable to activate TFA
Thanks for the report. We're looking into this for you.

@thomasp thanks, so works as expected.
Already adjusted my setup out of habit, but not sure how wide-spread this kind of disposition is.
-
I set the app password (it works), but I can't generate a second one or check the old one. I f I click at manage I get an error pageok, I had to sign out and in again
-
@jan-ripper We've made a fix. Could you please try again, see if you have more luck now?

Thanks for looking into this so quickly @thomasp. Unfortunately it still does not work for me. Not sure if I'm missing something. Even tried clearing the cookies again

Sad, my Nitrokey 3A fails to be added as Security Key
Key is detected, PIN can be set and key touched, but the does not show up on page which shows the added keys.Any user having same issue?
-
@DoctorG
I have a feeling that perhaps you clicked on the page before the dialog to give the new key a name appeared, thus cancelling the name giving action. The key should be added though.
Do you see it when you reload the page? -
@jane-n I will ask internally at this time.
-
Thank's for this update.
-
To mark the occasion, I even set a 4th factor in my authentication options.
-
@derDay Was the same for me, seems to be a bit of a bumpy ride still. Authenticator app only worked after logging out and back in again and doing it all over again. Hardware key didn’t seem to work at first, but was present after the login.
-
I have it set up :knight:

I have had an account/webmail for 4 years now, even before the mobile verification came around. I have my vivaldi[dot]net email in quite a few places, primarily for git & open source contributions. Is it possible for me to know if I have enough community reputation to keep using the webmail?
-
@pangolin If you already have a webmail account you can keep using it, nothing changes for you. This is only valid for people who don’t have access to webmail yet.
-
@luetage are you sure about that?
If you have an older account, but for one reason or another didn’t verify your phone number, you will be able to create a blog but will need to start building a reputation to use Vivaldi Webmail like all new users.
This seems to indicate otherwise.
-
@pangolin You would have already been denied access, the rule is already in place. The above statement is a bit ambiguous, granted. But I never verified my phone number and I still have access, so…

Hi, I woke up today to see my Vivaldi Mail webpage completely different. How do I make it look like the previous version I was using? I hate this look I got, it looks like all the other mail services I moved away from partially because of their ugly interface.
Like seriously, I had a nice mix of subtle shades of blue that made reading more comfortable, now all I have is an option for pure white with black letters or pure black with white letters and that hurts my eyes.
Please don't force me to use a UI I hate, don't do the same thing deviantArt did when they eclipsed themselves, especially when the whole point of the browser is that you can customize it to look and behave exactly how you want it to.
Seriously, you have no idea how upsetting this is for me.
