On May 30, you may lose access to apps that are using less secure

To help keep your account secure, Google will no longer support the
use of
third-party apps or devices which ask you to sign in to your Google

using only your username and password. Instead, you’ll need to sign in
using Sign in with Google
I have used a google account to read email from mailing lists. I am
using
fetchmail to get emails from google. Now it says it will discontinue
this
access to my mail. I do not want to use webmail (I need to receive my
mail
on my computer). Is there a way to somehow download emails from gmail
as I used to after May 30?
There's scripts been posted on the getmail mailing list to fix this.
I ought to sort it out in the next day or so but it might be easier to
stop using gmail.
There's some other limiting thing coming in later apparently.
