  • Google will disable all but OAuth for IMAP, SMTP and POP starting Sept. 30

    Shouldn't be _too_ hard to convert your scripts.

    I ran into the same problem and one workspace disallows App passwords. You can simply get the OAuth token with a little python script and then use it as the password: https://github.com/google/gmail-oauth2-tools/blob/master/pyt...

    (see for example https://github.com/lefcha/imapfilter/issues/186)

  • SMTP/OAUTH2 to send email via gmail
    3 projects | /r/golang | 24 Dec 2021
    I tried to keep dependencies low, and while developing that and testing it I came across sendgmail. sendgmail is a little more polished but has a lot more dependencies, it's also not really setup to be imported into a project and used like a package.
  • Send SMS Text Message With Python Using GMail SMTP For Free

    Integrated with OAuth2 and register an app with Google to get a client secret. This should clear that up but honestly it's a hassle to do, I had a similar script (posted my story in another comment) and I always thought of going through and redoing it to authenticate with OAuth but it just seemed like a hassle. I found this which should help. https://github.com/google/gmail-oauth2-tools/wiki/OAuth2DotPyRunThrough
