E-mail notification using smtp.gmail.com

Deadline
1

Hey,
I’m trying to set up e-mail notification for Deadline using gmail. But I only getting a timeout error:
" Attempting to send test email…

Error occurred while trying to send email:

System.Net.Mail.SmtpException - The operation has timed out."

If I increase the timout to 35 from 10:
" Attempting to send test email…

Error occurred while trying to send email:

System.Net.Mail.SmtpException - Failure sending mail.

System.IO.IOException - Unable to read data from the transport connection: The connection was closed."

How can one solve this issue?

There is also one more thing, related to gmail, i think they have disabled using 3rd part apps that could access their services, but there is a workaround :wink:

You probably need to setup App Password with Google:

Thank you!
I’ll try this out!

Thanks, but I’m aware that I need an app password.

Well, this sadly did not said anything new. It’s a bit outdated and also I have everything already set up, what’s written here. And yet no luck.

Can you try using port 587?
Because I have it working just fine … I use my own gmail account in the SMTP Requires authentication, but replaced my normal password with the app password.

Than I got a STRATLS error. That it’s start with an unexpected string or something like, that it’s not infornt of me but I tried to use this port as well. I realized I have mailbox for my domain. I’ll try to use my domain provider’s SMTP service.

We have it working with
smtp-relay.gmail.com as the server
port 587
Use SSL is ON
Authenticated as a regular user (or perhaps with an app password, can’t see)
