[Alpine-info] Alpine and Gmail

[Karen Lewellen via Alpine-info]

Hi There,
providing what might be a place to check.
When I went through setting my gmail alpine, the person hosting that door 
and I discovered that google will send some information via another 
method.
In settings, perhaps notifications or security?
There is an option  to have google call you with the code, or text you 
with  the code.
I chose a call..with a rather dreadful voice providing the key that way.
Hope this is helpful,
Karen
