gmail discontinuing notifications from apps using login and and password

Thread needs solution

I just received a notification from Google as follows: "To help keep your account secure, starting May 30, 2022, ​​Google will no longer support the use of third-party apps or devices which ask you to sign in to your Google Account using only your username and password."

Does this mean that I can no longer receive notifications from Acronis True Image 2021 for individual tasks?

How can I make Acronis use "more secure App Access" ?

Ray, welcome to these public User Forums.

Acronis are not going to fix the issue at the heart of this topic, i.e. the insecure version of SSL that they are using for email notifications from individual tasks!

The only way around this issue is to find another email service that will still work with Acronis and not complain about it being 'less secure'.

I am using mail.co.uk for my own email notifications which is a free service for private use.
