Hello,

Since yesterday I am having difficulties polling for gmail replies as shown here:

These are my Google Account security settings:

As you can see I’ve got 2-Step Verification turned off.

I’ve also enabled Account access via [this page](https://accounts.google.com/b/0/DisplayUnlockCaptcha) as explained on [this topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/troubleshooting-gmail-poll-via-pop3-for-email-replies/61839/4).

However, I’ve read somewhere that there might be some problems, because I am based in Slovenia, so our gmail account was created from Slovenia as well whereas our DigitalOcean servers are based in New York.

For example, when I try to log into this email account using a new browser, Gmail requires me to type in a code I receive over SMS message.

And ideas?

Note: and to state the obvious: log in credentials are correct - they were working just 5 days ago.

Thanks!  
Mitja
