I got the same email. Will go into effect May 30, 2022.
I have this plugin on 6 sites for login resends and forms etc, but can’t afford for google to block it.
It seems to flag this app as “less secure”.
`What do you need to do?
An app or device which uses Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) to send emails using your Google Account has less secure access to your Gmail. This might be an older device, like a printer or scanner. To continue using your Google Account with this app or device:
App – Remove your Google Account from the app or device and sign in again using Sign in with Google
Device – Change your device’s settings so you’re using more secure sign-in technology`
They post a link to this page: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6010255?rfn=1646361360139&anexp=nret-fa&pli=1#zippy=
I think the plugin needs to be rewritten with “sign-in with Google” in mind or people with gmail smtp will be discontinued.
