Google has been notifying about its new policy about closing accounts it considers non active, after some period of "inactivity". I'm wondering if Thunderbird and K9 authentication through OAuth counts for Google to consider the account active... That, besides actively receiving/sending email through Thunderbird/K9.

Does anyone know?

yea, the thing is that the account is only used for email, and through thunderbird and k9, no web login. I guess that doesn't count, :(

login to youtube from a browser with that account and watch one or two videos and sign out. do this every 8-10 months to keep the account active.
