Can't configure gmail account

Erni_bro

I enabled pop3 in gmail settings, did all steps from instruction https://support.google.com/mail/answer/7104828?hl=en&visit_id=638044653243504142-453077802&rd=1#zippy=,i-cant-sign-in-to-my-email-client,i-cant-send-emails But still have this "not accepted" issue. The password and username is definitely correct, I checked it many times. What else can I do to make it work?

POP with 'less secure apps' is no longer supported by Gmail https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6010255?hl=en
You can try IMAP instead, but you're probably better off with non-Gmail accounts

I also tried IMAP, problem is probably the same. So, nobody using gmail with GSA SER nowadays? 

What can you reccomend instead gmail?

GMX are solid, but you're best off with a load of cheap domains on cheap hosting that allow POP accounts and use your own.

You can still use gmail accounts when following steps from here: https://docu.gsa-online.de/email_spider/email_provider_settings

There is no "APP Passwords" option in myaccount.google.com > Security
