Hello
I am trying to setup custom email in backendless so I can send an email from code.
I have a gmail email and I set it to have “less secure access” to ON
I used the following
However I keep getting this error:
Username and Password are not accepted. Message from smtp server: 535-5.7.8 Username and Password not accepted. For more information, go to
535 5.7.8 https://support.google.com/mail/?p=BadCredentials 46e09a7af769-71fc998e5bdsm465137a34.51 - gsmtp
What should I do to fix it?
It seems like there is no way to use Gmail SMTP with login/password any more
So there is no solution to use GMAIL here right? Does hotmail or yahoo work? Do you have any recommendation?
It appears you can not use Gmail with user/pass way and oauth we do not support yet, we’ve got in plans add the ability to connect an email account with oauth but at this moment there is no any ETA.
If they support it it should work, the server just uses the configuration you provided.
I can recommend you to use on the email services from the following list:
