It is my mistake, after looking at the logfile I logged out of gmail and tryed to login. Failed and gave me a hint that I changed password some time ago. Using new password bingo it now works.
Sorry for the confusion .. If you get the same question again, ask people to sign out gmail and test the password by signing on again.
Thanks for all support and hints ...
