Please keep in mind that this kind of email does not mean that there is an intrusion. Sometimes when one sets up a new device to get mail from GMAIL this gets triggered, particularly if one is in a different location. Sometimes you simply have to log into GMail using the web and follow some instructions that verifies that the activity is all right. For example, I got this message when I set up my cellphone to receive a GMail account. If you have not set up any new devices or computers to receive mail from the particular GMail account, then it is probably a very good idea to change your password because someone might be messing with the account. However, if you just tried setting up another computer or other device to get mail from the affected account, then you probably don't need to change the password, just log into GMail on the web. Also, the location given isn't necessarily going to be where you are but may relate to an IP address.
