I use GMAIL linked to my OD to send emails

I changed my GMAIL password yesterday

I updated the new password in OD (setup>email>)

but emails are not being sent

error states that its not being authenticated (code 5.5.1)

im sure the password is correct

any idea what im doing wrong?

thoughts? advise? thanks

You might try changing your port in OD from 587 to 465

port change did not work


i am stumped


ive done this before with no problems??


any other thoughts?

Gmail will sometimes require 2 Step Authentication. Did you turn that on?

im not sure how do i do that?
