### Two Factor Authorization

In case your Google Account protected with [Two Factor Authorization](http://support.google.com/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=180744),
you have to create [an application-specific password](https://accounts.google.com/b/0/IssuedAuthSubTokens?hl=en_GB) and use your email
to login as usual.

Otherwise you will get an `AuthenticationError: Unable to authenticate. 403 code` when trying to login.
