Hi... and Merry Christmas!

I recently became aware that Google is going to start forcing all 
connections to their email servers to use OAuth 2.0 effective June 2020...

https://gsuiteupdates.googleblog.com/2019/12/less-secure-apps-oauth-google-username-password-incorrect.html

I have a number of processes that use GMail for data transfer and also 
for automated sending of email.  Although I used to use MarshallSoft 
prior to upgrading to Xbase 2.0 as GMail required SSL connections I 
currently use the Xbase classes.

However, I don't believe they support OAuth 2.0 and was wondering if 
anyone else will be impacted by Google's change and if they have an 
alternate solution.

I have sent in a query to both Alaska and MarshallSoft but have yet to 
hear back with a definitive reply.

Thanks... Jonathan
