Hi,

After some considerable effort of getting the alexa skill to build I've finally been able to activate and link the skill to a gmail / g suite email.

The commands seem to work fine but it doesn't show new messages and simply refers me to use the alexa app.

Sorry. I have not been in github in some time. I need to mark this as deprecated. The issue you report was not happening last time I used this skill. However, that was several years ago.  Amazon and Google have both increased their cybersecurity requirements since then, so I was required to pull it from the skill store. The senior citizen for whom I designed it also declined in health and never used it so i stopped work on it.  I think there are other, easier ways to get email on the echo now, but am not certain of this.  This skill was rolled out very early in the Alexa development and the echo family has many more capabilities than it did then. sorry I'm not more helpful.
