This is my default account and has been working fine until 2 days ago. I changed gmail password and allow less secure apps but nothing works. I get this message "Sending of password for user jtcrooks09@gmail.com did not succeed. Mail server pop.gmail.com responded: Web login required: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/78754". I have another gmail account and it works fine in the same program.
