AiProtection Alert Mails

[Veldkornet]

Has anyone got the Alert Mails for AiProrection working?

I've got it setup with GMail, and I see in the log that it "sends" a mail after setup, but I never receive a mail....

I have it setup and do receive alert emails occasionally to my GMail account for blocked sites. I did not receive an email at setup.

Hmm, anyone know if there's a way to send a test mail from the terminal?

Hi veldkornet,
All mail providers are not allowed SMTP protocol now, you need to adjust your security level in your gmail seeting. And this is why we can't support all mails or some requests from users. ASUS can't request 163 / QQ / aol / gmail / outlook / mas / yahoo etc. to open this protocol again due to spam mail issue.

Thanks,
Vanic

See if it alerts off the Eicar test virus...

Ah, I reconfigured it using an App specific password from GMail, and now I got the verification

Can you expand on this please? What is the 'App specific password'?

 

[Veldkornet]

An app password is a 16-digit passcode that gives an app or device permission to access your Google Account. 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.

If you have 2FA activated on gmail you certainly need an app password to have gmail working with third party mail related applications. Otherwise you just need gmail set to accept POP connections.

Hmm, Google doesn't allow App passwords on my account for some reason. I enabled 'allow POP' on my Gmail, re-set the AI protection and re-entered my Gmail address/password. Still no verification email.

If you didn't change your email address, I don't think it sends a mail, as it thinks it already sent one. You will have to check in the logs.

I set mine back to blank. Then set it up again, then it sent the verification mail.

Did that and got this email:

Sign in Attempt Prevented

Someone just tried to sign in to your Google Account xxxxxxxxx@gmail.com from an app that doesn't meet modern security standards.
Details:

xxxxxxxxx, XX, USA*
We strongly recommend that you use a secure app, like Gmail, to access your account. All apps made by Google meet these security standards. Using a less secure app, on the other hand, could leave your account vulnerable.

Google stopped this sign-in attempt, but you should review your recently used devices:​

Does anyone need to re-enter email's password for alert preference every time you update signature to make it work again? Every time I update Trend Micro Signature, AiProtection's alert mails stop working. I have to set it up again by entering email's password(email is already there on the setting) and then apply.
