Reopen : https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat/issues/2312
Problem with setting : Less Secure Apps
https://support.google.com/a/answer/6260879?hl=en
How to configure so we can force Rocket.Chat to be more than less secure apps visible for Gmail.

For GSuite: It need to be enabled for organisation, then by user must be done separately.
Before: Work just fine because no forcing of that settings by Google.

Can someone add to documentation some info about that? And of course maybe some example settings for that case ;/

Settings work just fine after I switch "ON" for "Enable less secure apps"

It's working on same settings:
PROTOCOL: SMTPS
HOST: smtp.gmail.com
PORT: 465
IgnoreTLS: NO
POOL: YES
Login & Password correct.
IMAP in account enabled.
