    Hi there,
    I never had this before using your awesome plugin. Not I got this:

    Some apps and devices use less secure sign-in technology, which makes your account more vulnerable. You can turn off access for these apps, which we recommend, or turn on access if you want to use them despite the risks.

    Google Suite.

    I think this important, even though you, after reading your comment actually a couple of years ago, said this is not important.

    Thanks.

    Gmail is an idiot, you can ignore this and go on with your life. Apparently Thunderbird is also very unsecure so yeah… It’s Google BS for:

    “Come to our website and enjoy 4GB of ads and recommendations as you load the page on our securerer-than-everyone-elses SSL and securererest servers. Yawn.

    If you use 2FA with GSuite or Gmail you can create an “app password” for the plugin. That should be more secure. You can also put the password in your wp-config.php file for maximum security.
