I'm also seeing lots of gmail bounces for legitimate gmail accounts today (starting around 14 Dec 2020 22:36 UTC).

Seems to be ongoing and blocking many (but not all) emails to accounts being reported as not existing.

> It doesn't work with regular http auth so you have to copy the fields in manually then refresh.

There's a slightly easier way - escape out of the basic auth dialog box, open the 1password menu which will be showing you the website you're on and select 'Autofill', and then reload the page (ie Ctrl-R) and the basic auth is supplied from 1password.

Not great, but easier and faster than copying in username and password fields manually (and with keyboard shortcuts available to do each step it can be quite fast).

From 1password comments I believe the limitation is because Firefox does not allow 1password to interact with the auth dialog box (which isn't strictly a bad policy from a general security point of view).
