 * Everything had been set up just fine. I don’t know what happened but now my emails
   are not getting through to gmail. I have no idea what this error message means.
   Do I start from scratch?
 * EMAIL DELIVERY ERROR: the plugin WP Mail SMTP v2.3.1 logged this error during
   the last time it tried to send an email:
 * Mailer: Gmail

 * Hi [@barbra-wolfe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/barbra-wolfe/) – We haven’t
   heard from you in about a week, so I’m going to go ahead and mark this ticket
   resolved. If you still have questions, though, please feel welcome to continue
