===Additional information and notes===
----
The most important thing to remember when following this guide, is to replace the information in the given commands with data that is relevant to you. Also, a lot of email service providers will block sign-in attempts from programs like this. To get around this, enable '''Access for less secure apps''' on your email account. Doing this this will be different for different services. We suggest that you use an Internet search engine for information on how to enable Access for less secure apps on your email. In any case, it should be as simple as flipping an ON/OFF switch.
'''WARNING''': enabling Access for less secure apps may leave your email vulnerable to attacks from other parties. Use it at your own risk.
