 * FluentSMTP was working great and then last week it needed us to reauthenticate
   with gmail API. How often do we need to do this? We only set up FluentSTMP about
   a month ago. Does reauthentication need to happen periodically? How can we get
   notified when we need to since the email logs don’t work when it needs to be 
   reauthenticated?
   Thank you and let me know if you need more info.

 * Hello [@oliverrealize](https://wordpress.org/support/users/oliverrealize/),
 * Regarding your question about the frequency of reauthentication, it’s not typically
   something that needs to happen regularly _unless_ there are changes to your Gmail
   account settings. Specifically, if you change your Gmail password or if there
   are any other security modifications made to your Gmail account, Google will 
   require you to reconfigure the connection within FluentSMTP.
 * Otherwise, under normal circumstances, reauthentication shouldn’t be necessary.
 * As for notifications when reauthentication _is_ required, I understand your concern
   about the email logs not working in such cases. Currently, FluentSMTP doesn’t
   have a built-in feature for proactive reauthentication alerts. This is something
   I will forward to the relevant department for future updates. I would suggest
   configuring Telegram or Other available email failure notifications.
 * Please let me know if you have any further questions, and I’d be happy to assist!
