Connecting your email without a fight

Get it for me. On the Connect your email step (and Setup → Email accounts) there is now one button that needs no AI helper. Press it: Google's, Yahoo's, or Apple's own app-password page opens in an InboxScout window. You sign in there and press Create. InboxScout picks up the new app password on its own, checks it, and connects the account. Nothing to copy, nothing to type. There is a Stop button, a 15-minute limit, and the window only allows the email service's own pages.

Plain answers instead of Command failed. If you paste your everyday password where the app password goes, InboxScout says so before trying it, and offers Try it anyway. If the service refuses a password, you now read "Gmail did not accept that password. It needs an app password, not your everyday password." instead of the server's raw reply. No-internet and 2-Step Verification cases get their own sentences.

Fixed. The half-cut error add': Error: Command failed came from InboxScout trimming the wrong part of an internal message; every screen now uses one shared cleaner.

Still to come

The true one-click Sign in with Google / Microsoft buttons are already built and turn on once the owner registers the free sign-in apps (Setup → Sign-in setup, or docs/GOOGLE.md and docs/OUTLOOK.md).
