[HELP] email doesn't get sent with gmail smtp
Published 3 years ago by almazik
Hi everyone.
I'm trying to send email from my application but getting the following error:
Expected response code 250 but got code "535", with message "535-5.7.8 Username and Password not accepted. Learn more at 535 5.7.8 http://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?answer=14257 kz7sm4622758lac.10 - gsmtp "
my app/config.mail.php looks like this:
'driver' => 'smtp',
'host' => 'smtp.gmail.com',
'port' => 587,
'from' => array('address' => 'xmalinkoff@gmail.com', 'name' => 'Andrew Malinkoff'),
'encryption' => 'tls',
'username' => 'username@gmail.com',
'password' => 'my pass',
'sendmail' => '/usr/sbin/sendmail -bs',
'pretend' => false,
Any thoughts?
credentials are correct, I tried to use different ones several times

You need to authorize the external application use of gmail, I think.
Follow the next steps and authorize to make it:
- First, go to your Google Account Management page
- Under the Security options, click Edit link of Authorizing applications & sites
Hope it helps you.

perfect, that was it, thank you
Well, it worked on local environment, but not going to on forge... Getting the same error
May be you need to create a token for use within forge.
Any forge user maybe help in a better way.
you can allow less secure apps from you settings in gmail, go to:
https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps
and set 'Access for less secure apps' to "Enabled"
@arabsight yes, thanks, I have already done it..
Best solution is to use http://mandrill.com/
You don't have to compromise with your Gmail security. Every Mandrill account comes with 2,000 free trial sends.
Why can you buy service while there is other free service please explain to me?
Hi,
Just change your 'driver' => 'smtp', to 'driver' => 'sendmail',
All configurations are correct. Just need to change driver 'smtp' to 'sendmail'. It's working.
For copy paste ;)
'driver' => 'sendmail', 'host' => 'smtp.gmail.com', 'port' => 587, 'from' => array('address' => '[email protected]', 'name' => 'Andrew Malinkoff'), 'encryption' => 'tls', 'username' => '[email protected]', 'password' => 'my pass', 'sendmail' => '/usr/sbin/sendmail -bs', 'pretend' => false,
Hi @stevewolfe555 , Thankyou very much!
I changed the driver to 'sendmail' and it worked.
But the emails are falling in the spam box, do you know about it?

Hi And thanks a lot @stevewolfe555! Modified in 2 sec and it worked !
@stevewolfe555 ,you are a genius, what should I do to repay you, a blow job?
