Note:
- Make sure to enable "Less secure app access" in your Google Account settings if you're using a third-party email client or app. You can do this by going to your Google Account settings, clicking on "Security," and then toggling the switch next to "Less secure app access."
- If you're using two-factor authentication (2FA) with your Gmail account, you may need to generate an App Password and use that instead of your regular password.
- Some email clients or apps may require additional settings or configurations. Be sure to check your email client's documentation for specific instructions.
