Interesting. I enable the "less secure apps" option in gmail myself, and haven't seen this. But I have received notice that that they will deprecate "less secure apps" on May 30th. Hopefully Netgear will address this quickly ( tagging Mark_V and JeraldM )
I'll need to switch to a different email provider for my two legacy NAS (running 4.1.x firmware). Or live w/o the alerts.
Hi SLK-Purdue,
Thanks for the ping StephenB!
I tried testing this out and it seems to be working on my end.
I also had "less secure apps" option disabled and the test message was sent to my email.
And just to confirm, after signing in with your Google account, is the screenshot provided below the same as yours?

When I try "Sign in with Google", I get a pop-up that says "Redirecting. Please wait ..." that eventually times out with the error message I sent. Just for fun, I did a reboot and tried Edge browser (had been using Chrome). Got same results. Odd ....

Also tried entering that email set up manually. No joy there either. Same error.

Is there a log I can pull to help on this? I can telnet in and I have Linux experience.

Here is log entry in msmtp.log from most recent attempt

Looks like an auth issue but I have confirmed my auth is valid.
Hi SLK-Purdue,
It does look like an auth issue and I assume the most recent attempt was when you manually set it up, right?
In this case, would it be possible if you could try signing in Google using an incognito browser and if possible, removing all of the alert contacts as well?
