sixwheeledbeast Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 May just be a placeholder and the symbols don't represent the password length? Question is does it work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

datadiffusion Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 (edited) If a Gmail account is used solely for m2m type stuff they can and do detect and block. I forget now but there is a workaround, i had to do it for my freepbx alerts. It might rely on running a script though, easy enough on a pi, obvs not so much on a DVR!
