Extra notes regarding Release Notes July 2022
- Announcement: Google only provides access to its POP and IMAP servers through verified applications. In case of cloud applications, this includes obtaining a letter of assessment from Google empanelled security assessors on an annual basis – price of which is simply out of reach for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Therefore, we have dropped support of POP/IMAP (external address) connections to Google servers.
