Urgent. Do not manage any more to use Kontact/ Kmail for Gmail.

[Marcelo Magno T. Sales]

Hello,

I remember that a while ago I had to configure Gmail to allow access from
"less secure" applications, or else it would refuse connection. I don't
remember exactly what I did, but you'll probably find a solution in one of
these two articles:
