Gmail SMTP Setup

Having issues with v2022 trying to set up the SMTP setting for GMail.

I have tried with 2 different GMail account settings, but it just times out.

  • a personal GMail account, with an Account Password (2-Step Verification is On)
  • a Google Workspace account, with Allow less secure apps turned on

Any insights ?

As the error said. You tried to POST to a script which does not accept POST.

You might be trying to use your own code to send email. You better post what you tried and your code for discusssion.

You need to Turn OFF less secure apps.
It's working fine for me.
Smtp host: smtp.gmail.com
SSL/Port 465
Auto TLS on

I don't believe this works any longer ?. I read Gmail has shutdown these features down. I was using gmail for years then a month or so ago, it all came to a halt. Unless they changed a flag ?
