I was able to configure mbsync and mu4e in order to use my gmail account (so far everything works fine). I am now in the process of using mu4e-context to control multiple accounts. I cannot retrieve emails from my openmailbox account whereas I receive this error

In other posts I've seen people suggesting AuthMechs Login or PLAIN but mbsync doesn't recognizes the command. Here is my .mbsyncrc file
IMAPAccount openmailbox
Host imap.ombx.io
User user@openmailbox.org
UseIMAPS yes
# AuthMechs LOGIN
RequireSSl yes
PassCmd "echo ${PASSWORD:-$(gpg2 --no-tty -qd ~/.authinfo.gpg | sed -n 's,^machine imap.ombx.io .*password \\([^ ]*\\).*,\\1,p')}"
IMAPStore ombx-remote

MaildirStore ombx-local

I am using Linux Mint and my isync is version 1.1.2 Thanks in advance for any help
EDIT: I have run a debug option and I have upgraded isync to version 1.2.1 This is what the debug returned:

My .msyncrc file now contains these options instead
