LavishDhand on "[Plugin: Gmail SMTP] Gmail Account Suspended"

Hello!

While setting up a new BuddyPress website few days ago; I discovered that no activation emails were being sent to the registrants. I confirmed it was not BuddyPress but even WordPress was not sending emails.

So, I tried to set up SMTP using the WP-SMTP plugin which did not work. It kept saying authentication failed (I was trying to use my Gmail dot com mail).

I ended up installing and setting up Gmail SMTP and it worked well.

The problem is - just after few minutes I set up Gmail SMTP successfully, Gmail sent me an email saying. “Your Google Account has been suspended”. Here is how that email looks like – http://i.imgur.com/cyldZdd.jpg

I replied to that email but have not heard back anything so far, my email account is still functioning and emails from my BP site are still being sent.

Using a gmail.com email was a test done on a test site. I wanted to configure my Google Apps account on my live site but now I am scared. Can you shed some light on what may have gone wrong here?

Thank you
