Open Gmail/ Settings (Top Right)/ Forwarding and Pop Imap (Top Middle of the page)/ Configuration Instructions (Blue Link in Pop Download Row). Here you get all the SMTP settings which you will be using.
If you have activated two step verification on your Gmail account, you cannot use the password that you use to get into your Gmail. You need a special password generated by Gmail instead.
Clink on "Accounts and Imports" link (Blue on the top middle of the page)/Other Google Accounts Settings (Blue Link 4 lines below)/Sign in and Security (Left Hand Side)/ App Password (Below Two Step Verification). Now create a new password for App which you will get to name something like FXCM. Copy that password and use it in the TS2 Email Configuration instead of your email password. (there are two port options. One of the two should work.
This parameter is no longer available.
A word of advice: as long as it works, don't touch anything!
