Use OAuth2 with Omnis 10.1?

[Das's]

I just want to send emails.. is there not a solution that is relatively simple?  I dont know WHY I had to set my google setting to Less Secure Apps.. I think it was because I have my own mail server and my emails weren’t getting through, so we had to set up Google as our proxy or whatever.. as if we’re sending from Google.. then my emails would get through otherwise ISP’s blocked them.. I think that’s what it was.. my God, what a mess.. you’d think you’d be able to send emails without all this fuss.
