• Hi,

    I installed this plugin and used the correct gmail smtp data including a working gmail account and password. I also gave the e-mailaccount authorisation to connect to apps (just to be sure). SSL is supported by my server but I still get an error with the test e-mail:

    bool(false)

    The full debugging output is shown below:

    object(PHPMailer)#429 (69) {
    [“Version”]=>
    string(5) “5.2.7”
    [“Priority”]=>
    int(3)
    [“CharSet”]=>
    string(5) “UTF-8”
    [“ContentType”]=>
    string(10) “text/plain”
    [“Encoding”]=>
    string(4) “8bit”
    [“ErrorInfo”]=>
    string(35) “SMTP Error: Could not authenticate.”
    [“From”]=>
    string(29) “strengersdubbers@gmail.com”
    [“FromName”]=>
    string(24) “Bericht vanaf de website”
    [“Sender”]=>

    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Never mind! Was able to solve it by going to the following page and turn on “Allow Less Secure Apps”

    Hope it helps someone.

    The result was:

    bool(false)

    The SMTP debugging output is shown below:
