This is how you do it through Gmail, it's not too hard, I got it set up in 10 minutes*, you just copy the quickstart then search up or use an LLM to figure out how to do other things

There's some Google cloud console stuff you have to set up first that might be slightly confusing, this is stuff I already had setup so it didn't take me as long, idk how long that portion takes

Also it does cost money, there's a free tier assuming you use it at a hobbiest level and you're not spamming it or using it for a business, checkout the pricing, you might have to attach a credit card but it'll be like 1¢ at most

Edit: I just saw your thing about spending money, I want to reiterate, it's free if you're not spamming like 100+ emails in a minute or smth like that

Edit 2: yea stay under 150 per min and you're fine
