Google is blocking Mail app from my gmail account

I have a gmail email account that I have been using with my Mail app for a long time. Now, Google is blocking the Mail app from accessing my gmail saying the Mail app is insecure. What should I do?

iMac, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

You may have to allow less secure apps within your Google Account settings.

Try this article:

If that doesn't work, I would reach out to Google since the issue is caused by them.
