Requesting for Jitbit to do app based integration to Gmail.

To make the SMTP and IMAP works using Gmail, some important security settings were needed to set off.

-------------------------------------------

or should there be a work around to handle 2FA, kindly share as well.

thanks

The workaround is to enable 2FA but use an "app password" to connect to SMTP/IMAP. Please check this post for a workaround: https://support.jitbit.com/helpdesk/KB/View/48705886-google-pop-imap-stopped-working-after-30-may-2022

We will add oAuth support for Google email if there's enough demand for it
