For some reason, this isn’t sending email for me. I have confirmed that I do in fact have the proper user/pass setup, but it still gives me this debug info:

With Gmail you have to also make sure the from email is set to your gmail address on the settings page. If you still have trouble you can use Postman SMTP to setup gmail sending via their api instead of smtp. https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/postman-smtp/

Then you just set SendPress to send via your website.

Best,
Josh

I set the gmail in the from as well and it wouldn’t work still. It shows me as the following: is there a way to get it to work without having to install anything else? I would rather not because there is a lot of custom code in it and don’t want to mess anything up:

As a follow-up, the mail functionality is working throughout the site – only sendpress is showing an smtp error even though we aren’t using smtp in this. We really need this to be able to work today so any help greatly appreciated, thank you.

HI mouschi,

This is a issue with smtp and gmail. I can recreate it on our test server as well. We are looking into getting it fixed. How many emails do you have to send out?

Hi Josh,
We need to send out at least 500 emails. I’ll be waiting with my fingers crossed until I hear back, thanks. Any eta or workaround even, so it can be sent out today?

hi mouschi,

Could you send an email to [email protected]. I will set you up with a test account for WP Email Delivery so you can get your 500 emails out tonight. If you can send an email to us soon.

Best,
Josh
