well, google no longer support "less secure apps" function starting May 30, 2022. I know opencart's email won't work through gmail without turn on "less secure apps" function in google. so pretty sure everyone who use Gmail will be effected

so i want to know if there any opencart modules that can solve this problem? also, what other email service do you guys recommend other than using gmail that will work with opencart?

please let me know. thanks

well, I found the solution.

the extension below works with Gmail two step verification and "less secure app" turn off. Problem solved

https://www.opencart.com/index.php?rout ... load_id=36

deadline for Google turning off "less secure apps" is coming soon (May 30th 2022) , can't believe not many people having this problem.
