<p>Great stuff,</p>
<p>as I said it was an old profile. I think I am going to nuke it
because it wasn't even properly startable with b4. I wonder
whether the newer / production profiles migrated me
authomatically as I hadn't seen the Oauth method beforee. Since
when do we have it?<br>

The reason I am asking I just opened 60b3 and was greeted with
the usual message of not being able to access my gmail because
of the whole "less secure apps" google restriction - this may be
due to using an older test profile, or it may be due to recent
changes of google APIs (?).
<br>
<br>
It was kind of awkward as I got a windows notification which
referred to a non existent support page, and I got 2 warning
emails "Security alert for your linked Google account" with the
usual prompt for switching gmail to accept "Access for less
secure apps". I feel fixing our authentication so that it also
compatible with gmail would be quite a good step for having a
user-friendly product, is that planned, or is it technically
impossible?
