I spent a few hours actually and it could work forever ( at least in a very long time that I can forget about it ) and it still works so I don't think there is anything to worry about. Also paying for something you can easily build out just bad. Like why would you ? and the most important thing about this is how to make nodemailer to work with Gmail which is notorious for it hassles.

If I can pay for something and I don't have to do it honestly speaking, I will never code. Like there always products out there that you can pay that easily already has been invested thousand of development hours. Why would I ever code again.

:) You contradict yourself.
In any case, this is everyone's choice, and I have nothing to add to what has already been said. I drew attention to this post only because of the advice to disable protection in order to warn readers how risky it is.

Good luck.
