So, you have figured it out. The state is actually tri-state, 'default',
|
|
'enabled', 'blocked'. Any account which had used PLAIN logins in the last
|
|
N days prior to the launch was set to 'enabled'. Any new account starts in
|
|
'default', which will moved to 'enabled' if a successful login occurs in
|
|
the first month of the account. All other accounts were set to disabled.
|
|
|
|
We may also automatically disable it for any account which stops using
|
|
PLAIN logins for several months.
|
|
|
|
We didn't add a new error message since we just send the user to the
|
|
support page which now includes the "allow less secure apps" information.
