    "Although you don’t need to take any action, we wanted to let you know that the following third-party apps will no longer be able to access some data in your Google Account, including your Gmail content."
    
    The ReadNAS Notification does not need any access to your Gmail content, e.g. received, sent, archived, whatever messages. This permission was granted as part of the Gmail token set-up, and will be revoked end of March 2019. Nothing to worry in my understanding.
