Re: Goggle and LSA (less secure apps)

We have used SMTP2GO for email relay and it has been reliable and cost
effective.

Just another option.

Some comments on this thread:

1. I'd completely forgotten about setting this up, but it appears that
we have our programmatically-generated emails from our cloud box going
through smtp-relay.gmail.com (which was a big upgrade from just sending
them out directly, and hoping they'd find their way to their recipients).

2. I've just been informed that Amazon has something called Amazon
Simple Email Service, and we are evidently already in the process of
migrating our cloud-based (non-Midrange, but Midrange-friendly) CRM
product to use that service to send email. I don't know much of anything
about it (least of all, whether it's at all Midrange-friendly), and
liteally only heard of it a few minutes ago.

3. Thanks for bringing this subject up, Mr. Crosby. I suspect that I'll
probably have to reconfigure T-Bird on my work Mac before the end of
September, because I don't *think* I've got it set up for OAuth.

interface is that it's slightly less clunky than my ISP's web-mail
interface. Then again, the only web-mail interface I've ever *actually
liked* was something called Squirrel Mail, which my previous ISP used.)
