Re: Goggle and LSA (less secure apps)

Further response from Google:






*Hello Jeff Crosby,From the September, Less secure apps will be deprivated
from all the users of Google workspace support. If you use less secure apps
now, you will be affected once LSA is removed from Google workspace. From
then you need to use 2- step verification and app passwords for the usage
of SMTP-relay.I hope you understand. Have a great day!Sincerely,Shaik*

"Deprivated?"

We've had many issues with these sorts of things as well, both for IBM i
and MFP devices. It's the same mess on eg Microsoft 365. What we ended up
doing was using a transactional email provider for automated emails, and
update our DNS records to add them to SPF/DKIM/DMARC.

I've personally have used
https://www.scaleway.com/en/transactional-email-tem/ for smaller
environments, and in larger environments with a framework agreement with MS
for Azure/M365/etc. I've used
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/communication-services/concepts/email/email-overview
before. I presume AWS/GCP will have similar options.

For me, the scaleway solution worked well for smaller environments - you
get a SMTP server from them, and you create an API key and associate it
with an application, and use those for authentication credentials. For
MFP's we've created individual keys for each MFP and put them all in a
group so we can use the built-in monitoring to see what happens wrt. Email
delivery and volume, and for applications themselves we work
per-application. It also keeps track of how many emails get rejected and
why, so you can troubleshoot this.

James, who in heaven's name is Mr Crosby?

From Google:

*"Hello Jeff Crosby,*






*Thank you for contacting Google Workspace Support.I am Naveen and I am
working with you through this issue. I hope this message finds you well

and

that you are having a great day.The blog you have shared is about

Disabling

less secure Apps for the new users. The users who enables less secure

apps

earlier can able to access them, but the new users who were added
recently/purchased Google workspace subscription will not be able to use
less secure apps. Instead they can use 2 step-verification and app
passwords for configuration of any SMTP. SMTP-relay, third party

services,

etc. It wont affect the old users who are using it for a long time (

before

the published date of the article/update). we suggest one thing that,

since

you are a smtp-relay user with the help of less secure apps, we are
requesting you to not turn off less secure apps from your admin console.
Once, it is turned off, you will not get that feature again, as it was
removed from the admin console for the new users.I hope you understand.
Have a great day!*

* Sincerely,*


*ShaikGoogle Workspace Support"*

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

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.
