Anyone else getting an "Authentication Failed" message when attempting to check their Gmail beginning today?

GMail security changes coming soon, affects access to POP and SMTP
https://support.mozilla.org/sv/questions/1369823
Google now inform me that "To help keep your account secure, Google will no longer support the use of third-party apps or devices which ask you to sign in to your Google Account using only your username and password. Instead, you’ll need to sign in using Sign in with Google or other more secure technologies, like OAuth 2.0.
What do you need to do?
Email software, like Outlook 2016 or earlier, has less secure access to your Gmail. Switch to Office 365, Outlook 2019 or newer, or any other email software where you can sign in using Sign in with Google." These changes are due to take effect from May 30th.

You should switch your Google Account to 2FA, and then define an app
