I did not run into this but read about (just lately on TMO) you may configure your devices to allow 'non-secure' access?

"...from an app that doesn't meet modern security standards."

Like basically any email client under the sun that does not come from Google.
Gotta love that. Interesting how much you can get away with by calling it "modern".

thank you, I found (almost) hidden setting to allow "non-secure" apps... recently google is making harder to use their service from non official apps/clients... bad thing...

it isnt the only problem. they also have "improved" the safety (of their business) by blocking chats from out of gmail when hangout is being used. So that now you can not chat from an xmpp server different than google with most of the google users who are connected through hangout
