UPDATE - HAD TO DELETE AND RE-ADD AS IMAP

I received notifications that Gmail may no longer work with Outlook. However, the communication noted that Gmail will work with Outlook 2019 which I am using. Starting today, by Gmail will not work with outlook. I receive an error

Task '******@gmail.com - Receiving' reported error (0x800CCC92) : 'Your email server rejected your login. Verify your user name and password for this account in Account Settings. The server responded: -ERR [AUTH] Username and password not accepted."

Is there an additional setting to make this work in Outlook 2019?

Outlook | Windows | Classic Outlook for Windows | For business

I was able to get the POP mail to work again

Here is the workaround Google Support sent me.

We found a workaround for your Outlook issue. You may try tosign in with app passwords

Create & use App Passwords

If you use 2-Step-Verification and get a "password incorrect" error when you sign in, you can try to use an App Password.

  1. Go to your Google Account.
  2. Select Security.
  3. Under "Signing in to Google," select App Passwords. You may need to sign in. If you don’t have this option, it might be because:
    1. 2-Step Verification is not set up for your account.
    2. 2-Step Verification is only set up for security keys.
    3. Your account is through work, school, or other organization.
    4. You turned on Advanced Protection.
  4. At the bottom, choose Select app and choose the app you using and then Select device and choose the device you’re using and then Generate.
  5. Follow the instructions to enter the App Password. The App Password is the 16-character code in the yellow bar on your device.
  6. Tap Done.

Tip: Most of the time, you’ll only have to enter an App Password once per app or device, so don’t worry about memorizing it.

Once you go through that you can use the Generated Password for your POP account

Hope this helps you all

    Thanks everyone. I'm going to wait until 6/8/22 to see if Google does the right thing and fix this right. If not, then I'll try the convoluted fix. I've heard that Outlook 2021 users have also experience the problem.

    Good to hear that the work-around works. But I believe Google has done its users a disservice. All along, they said that 2019 Outlook and new would not be affected. That is a breach of Customer Service confidence.

    Cheers all!

    Finally got it working. Need to sign into each Gmail acct and turn on 2 Step for each and add unique new password for each account. Wow, my next step is to move everything to Proton mail. Already don't use Google for search but rather Duck Duck Go.

    It makes no sense, but when Google reenabled access, I did not have to turn on the second authentication business and Outlook logged into Google like it had always done before. It has been working fine ever since. I had accessed Google all along using the account password, but they changed something that they weren't supposed to from the looks of it.

    Now, I'll work on trying to figure out whether SiriusXM screwed up since their app no longer works in Windows 11 or whether Microsoft changed something with the recent updates that broke it.
