#ADDING GMAIL TO OUTLOOK 2010 HOW TO#
In this case how to generate one time app password.
#ADDING GMAIL TO OUTLOOK 2010 PASSWORD#
As per above article only one time app password to enter in outlook and thats it continue to use. The username password should be transferred in a secure channel but there may be points where a sniffer could pick it up.ġ) Can you explain in simple steps considering less secure apps is closed by google now then what to do to ensure outlook still works.Ģ) If 2 step authentication is enabled in admin i guess even if less secure apps is closed by google still outlook works fine. Less secure apps use plain username/password authentication to access an account instead of OAuth 2.0. If you choose to allow less secure apps, is it really insecure? No, it's just not as secure as using the newer OAuth protocol to login. If you use public hotspots, you should enable two-factor. It doesn't request re-authorization often, which makes using an app password fairly painless. In my experience with Gmail, their implememation of two-factor authorization is not annoying at all and retains the authorization.
Gmail allows you to revoke individual app passwords, which you can do by clicking the trash can icon to the right of the device name. If you enable two-factor authentication, you'll create new app passwords at App passwords. If two-factor authentication is not enabled, the option to allow less secure apps is at the end of the page. To check or change your settings, sign in to Gmail then open your Google account settings. If you use an application, such as Outlook, that does not yet support the second authorization, you'll need to use an app password.

In Gmail's implementation, you'll receive a code by text message to enter when the second authorization screen comes up. My recommendation is to turn off less secure apps and enable two-factor auth. (The app password is a one-time use password that can be voided if you suspect it is compromised, without affecting your “real” password.) Unfortunately, when less secure apps are not allowed, Outlook can't connect to Gmail servers, unless you also enable two-factor authorization then use an app password in Outlook. Other people said Google sent them an email recommending a security checkup or saying they were using less secure apps or and they took Google's advice to disable less secure apps. (The "someone" turned out to be himself while using a hotspot.) One of the steps was to turn off the allow less secure apps options, which he did. He went through the steps and made the changes they suggested. While I was looking at his computer, he told me Google sent him an email because someone tried to connect to his account and the email included a list of steps to take to insure the account was secure. It was perplexing until one client wanted me to fix it for him. I started seeing a lot of Gmail users asking for help because Outlook stopped syncing.
