E-Mail reporter: OAuth support 2.0 for GMail

I got email from Google that

On May 30, you may lose access to apps that are using less secure sign-in technology. 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 Account using only your username and password. Instead, you’ll need to sign in using or other more secure technologies, like OAuth 2.0

Does URL Watch support OAuth 2.0 ? Do we need to make any changes ?

urlwatch doesn't directly support OAuth at the moment for E-Mail sending with GMail (or any other provider).

Have you checked if any of the other reporters could do the trick for you?

Alternatively, you can set up a local mail server (e.g. Postfix, Exim or something) and send e-mail using that server.
