Gmail: Sign-in attempt prevented

If you’re having issues setting up Gmail with our Email Piping addon, then read this.

If you get an email from Google about “Sign-in attempt prevented”, don’t worry;

gmail_signin_attempt_prevented

  1. All you have to do is to login to your Google Account here: https://myaccount.google.com/security?pli=1
  2. Then you turn ON the setting called “Allow less secure apps

You will then get an email confirmation from Google:

gmail_less_secure_apps_enabled

When you try to connect to Gmail, the error should now be gone 🙂
