I created a dummy gmail account that my Profilux 4 uses to email me alerts. It's been working for the past several months. I received a Security email from Google that they prevented a login from a German IP address because they didn't believe it was me. They had the correct password.

It's a new account + confident I didn't leak the password. The Profilux4 could have routed the emails thru that IP or something besides the Profilux attempted the login.

Any thoughts?
 
Are we supposed to say "yes it was me" or do nothing, does it matter?
 
"YES, THAT WAS ME" - otherwise Google mail block out that server, and your emails may automagically stop working. If google decides. We have no control over google's services, or security functions.
