UPDATE:
I was about to send this post thread when I found out how to solve it. I think is worthy if someone else have same problem.
You must enable 2FA in your gmail account and generate a password app. Once generated, you have to replace your old password in postfix for this new one (16 characters long).

Hi,
Since announcement from Gmail to stop supporting "less secure apps" since May 30, 2022, I am getting errors related to this. I don't know how can I fix it since Postfix tutorial has not been updated for so long. I also know that using gmail for notification is not very professional but it was working fine.
I also read this recent updated post but although it was mentioned I've not found how to fix it.
Any workaround here?
Thanks,
