Hi Hira

In  other words, you gmail account has/might been compromised/hacked and is
being used to spam.

Gmail usually do not block accounts due to failed logins since this means
someone is trying to hack your account. If they do so, they usually block
it temporarily. They do block it permanently when you/your account start
sending "random emails" where there a lot of failed ones. This usually
means the account has been compromised/hacked and is being actively used
for spamming/phishing/etc.

You must change the password for a hard to guess one AND also change the
account identification info in order to avoid hackers to recover its
password, since they already know that info. Also, as per Paul, follow
gmail instructions in order to de-list it from spam and unblock it.

Else, create another account with a hard to guess password and reconfigure
koha.

Regards,

Alvaro
