Instructions for sending emails via Gmail from the Xbase++ application
Attached in ZIP file
Especially important
The App Password option allows you to create an unlimited number of passwords and they have no expiration date.
I created those two (as in the instructions: Google App Passwords and Xbase++ developers.pdf) and I tried to send email from the program with both, and it worked with both.
Which means the following:
- Once created, the password has no expiration date
- Once the user enters such a password in his application (EXE program), it lasts and does not need to be changed, until the user himself wants to change it (first on the Google account, and then in the program)
- I tested sending emails with multiple passwords and it works, so there is no limit there either.
