I have a frustratingly general question, and it's one more based on = curiosity than need. I've been a fan of SquirrelMail for many years, and = have noticed recently that you can no longer connect to your Gmail = account using it. I understand there's really no practical point in = doing this - just use gmail's webmail or a pop/imap client, and I think = there's a pop fetch plugin for SQ too, not sure if it has the same issue = though. so please forgive me for not being specific or being able to upload code = in question - i was just wondering if anyone knew why Gmail hates SQ = these days? why doesn't the way SQ logs into an imap server work with = gmail anymore? when I set up the config file with all the correct = details and go to log in, it tells me i entered an incorrect user name = or password, then moments later an email arrives in my gmail inbox that = reads: Someone just tried to sign in to your Google Account ****@gmail.com from = an app that doesn't meet modern security standards. i've read google is renowned for not following standards, not sure if = that's true, but I'm just wondering why gmail cracks a wobbly at SQ = these days when I definitely remember it working a few years ago. like i = said, i have no practical purpose to access my gmail with squirrelmail, = but was curious about what's changed food for thought! peace and blessings= --Apple-Mail=_35766D16-57E9-4C2D-B1F9-A7C46B9E7537 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii <html><head><meta http-equiv=3D"Content-Type" content=3D"text/html = charset=3Dus-ascii"></head><body style=3D"word-wrap: break-word; = -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;" = class=3D""><p style=3D"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; border: 0px; = font-size: 15px; clear: both; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: = Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;" class=3D"">Hello!</p><p = style=3D"margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-size: = 15px; clear: both; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, = 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;" class=3D"">I have a = frustratingly general question, and it's one more based on curiosity = than need.
