ALL email services have password cracking protection enable, either blocking offender's IP addresses, faking positive results for bad passwords or faking negative results for a correct password.

Also hydra is telling the mail server that it is a password cracking tool to prevent misuse.

So if you test your own gmail/hotmail/... user account hydra will very likely tell you that the password is wrong.
But it is not hydra that is wrong, it is the mail server detecting an attack attempt and giving a fake reply.

Maybe this could be fixed but I never will because that would be - except for very rare circumstances - an illegal usage of the tool. And for these rare circumstances the person hired to perform the authorized penetration would be highly skilled and can easily make the necessary changes.

I had found out (and it was still true two years ago) that gmail can be tested with pop3s://smtp.gmail.com
