Hi,
If you care for extra security, you don't need to disable the 2FA on Gmail.
Enable the 2FA again, find the Application Specific Password settings, and create a new random password for using SMTP on bOS.

This way you can keep the extra layer of the 2FA security on your account, while having a specific password for bOS.

Hey,
Just a reminder that on 30.05.22 Gmail will close the access for less secure apps. More info on Google
Hello,
For what I know, I think that "Less secure apps" setting is different from "App specific passwords":
For using App specific passwords, you need to activate the 2-factor authentication.
"Some apps and devices use less secure sign-in technology, which makes your account vulnerable. You can turn off access for these apps, which we recommend, or turn it on if you want to use them despite the risks. Google will automatically turn this setting OFF if it’s not being used."
"This setting is not available for accounts with 2-Step Verification enabled. Such accounts require an application-specific password for less secure apps access."
I use the Gmail with app specific password, and apparently it won't be affected. But feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
Best regards
I am not receiving mails from CC.
I did not enable the less security apps on my gmail because this option does not exist anymore, does it?
What am I missing?
Hello,
try setting the smtp server as imap.gmail.com and try again (also make sure login credentials are set correctly).
We've re-tested this in the office today and it works normally.
This issue may also be related to your weather not working, so setting the DNS and maybe remote session to resolve thre syncing issue may be required to resolve this problem as well.
Best regards
