Since 1 June 2022 I can't use Outlook 2003 for emails.
The reason is well published - Google no longer allow use with "less secure apps".
I have generated an app password consisting of 4 blocks of 4 letters with spaces between each block.
However when I enter this in the setup of my pop.gmail account, first on the initial page, then in "More Settings/ Outgoing server",
"Test Account Settings" still fails.
I have tried entering the app password with and without spaces but it makes no difference.
For information, I have 2 step verification set up (if that's relevant).
All the settings in "More Settings" (apart from the new password) are the same as Pre-June 2022 - ie when it was working OK.
I must be going wrong somewhere, but where?
Please help.
