Google security alerts, cannot prevent google from sending security alerts even when I have told it to "Allow Less Secure Applications"
 
Hi folks,

The description is pretty self-explanatory. I have several gmail accounts and I have set them to "enable less secure applications" but no matter what I try, google keeps sending out several security alert emails whenever I start up The Bat. Is there something I need to configure to prevent this? OR Alternatively, how do I make The Bat more secure?

Thanks
Dave
 
Did you try to ask about it the support? https://www.ritlabs.com/en/support/

I don't have any alerts on my side with gmail-box on POP3, for example.

This is how Gmail (POP3) and The Bat work for me:

My Gmail account configuration in The Bat (screendump): https://i.postimg.cc/HkhzXRfW/gmailcfg.jpg

On Google.com:

https://myaccount.google.com/permissions shows The Bat under both "Third-party apps with account access" and "Signing in with Google".
https://myaccount.google.com/security shows "Less secure app access" as OFF.

Note: the Gmail platform consists of many different servers. Sometimes they introduce new requirements that take weeks or months to be implemented on all servers. During those times, what works for one user may not work for another.
