And, I guessed there is network or firewall problem. I allowed all mailspring firewall in private and public. But This action did not change anything.

The last guess was there is some account sync cache problem. I did find and delete all mailspring related files and then reinstall. But the problem did not solved.

Hope there is a solution…

Is this error also involved? This error is occurred on Account > Local data > rewrite cache.

I have been having exactly this same issue! It’s like Mailspring has stopped storing the OAuth refresh token or something. My mail sync logs look as above, though occasionally they are more explicit in getting an HTTP 400 back from google OAuth for “invalid_grant”.

In fact, I can see in the config.json that this is not stored:

Thank you @majorsimon. Your replay encouraged me and i searched some more.

Here is the accounts parts inconfig.json codes:

"accounts": [
      {
        "id": "ACCOUNT_ID",
        "metadata": [],
        "name": "MY_NAME",
        "provider": "gmail",
        "emailAddress": "MY_EMAIL@gmail.com",

          "imap_port": 993,
          "imap_username": "MY_EMAIL@gmail.com",
          "imap_security": "SSL / TLS",
          "imap_allow_insecure_ssl": false,
          "smtp_host": "smtp.gmail.com",
          "smtp_port": 587,
          "smtp_username": "MY_EMAIL@gmail.com",

        },
        "label": "MY_EMAIL@gmail.com",
        "autoaddress": {
          "type": "bcc",
          "value": ""
        },
        "aliases": [],
        "syncState": "sync_error",
        "syncError": {
          "code": 1,
          "error": {
            "stack": "Error: Account is missing required fields:imap_password or refresh_token\n    at ChildProcess.onStreamCloseOrExit (file:///C:/Users/appveyor/AppData/Local/Temp/1/nylas-build/electron-packager/win32-ia32/Mailspring-win32-ia32/resources/app/src/mailsync-process.ts:293:21)\n    at ChildProcess.emit (events.js:210:5)\n    at ChildProcess.EventEmitter.emit (domain.js:476:20)\n    at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (internal/child_process.js:272:12)",

        "color": "",
        "__cls": "Account"
      }
    ],
    "accountsVersion": 17
  }

I looked up mailsync-process.ts on github and found where the problem was. It seems lastJSON parsing error from outbuffer.

I also googled about Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (internal/child_process.js:272:12). This seems like a node-gyp build error on windows because the node version is not compatible.

Finally I gave up in this problem and formatted my PC. Fortunately It works well.
