      I am unable to get Reply by Email to connect to Gmail. At first, this was a Google security issue. They blocked sign in from bbPress Notify as a “less secure app.” I changed my settings to allow less secure apps, but it still won’t connect (no further messages from Google).

      The log says “[03/04/2020 20:21:54] Could not connect to the mail server. Error message: cannot login, user or password wrong” but the user and password are correct. I have double checked multiple times just to be sure.

      Suggestions?

      Hi Jeff,

      I have version 2.0 in Beta which allows people to connect to Gmail using oAuth, as user/password is being deprecated by Google.

      I’ll send you an email with instructions on how to get the beta file.

      Cheers,
      Vinny
