Security

Dear Experts, 

Recently Google disabled the "less secure app" knob in the accounts which prevents CPPM from using Gmail as the smtp server. 

Any ideas how to still do it with Gmail or any other mail provider ?

ClearPass version?

Hi Ronin101,

Seems like Google is more alert on who and how can use their services free. Now on one must have Google admin console account to configure smtp relay.

To sign in to admin.google.com, use an administrator account for a managed Google service, such as Google Workspace or Cloud Identity.

I tried with outlook live, and worked like a charm. Awesome
