PDS Emails using Gmail
  • There's a new option for sending emails via PDS if you have a Gmail account. To use this method, update your Email Server settings. And make sure you authorize access so PDS can send emails using your Gmail account.
    Note: If you previously set up a Gmail App Password, we recommend switching to the new Gmail OAuth 2.0 API method. This method is more secure and recommended by Google.
