Email alert Not going to work with GMAIL effective 3-31-2019
I use GMAIL for my email and the email alerts from my ReadyNAS 214. I received the following email from GMAIL:
Hello,
Although you don’t need to take any action, we wanted to let you know...
I don't understand the title of your post, as it seems unrelated to the text. Can you clarify?
I also use gmail for notifications, and I haven't seen any email like yours from google. What firmware is your NAS running?

I received the same notifications as well; running 6.95.

Try signing out and then sign in again.
What do you mean sign in and out again? Sign in and out of the ReadyNAS? I have done that more than once. Are you saying, uncheck the box for the email account info?
Do you see a [Sign Out] and [Send Message] buttons on the email setup screen? Or do you see [Clear] and [Send Message]?
A screenshot showing the [Sign Out] is shown here: https://community.netgear.com/t5/New-ReadyNAS-Users-General/gmail-auth-not-working-after-trying-to-relogin/m-p/1725562#M35851
If you have the [Sign Out] button, then Netgear says to sign out using that button and then sign back in.
