    Can I use OAuth to authenticate Google SMTP

    Yes you did and I appreciate that - however I had already set it all up and paid and got it working! I do however have a 30 day cancellation period. THANK YOU. It has taken ages but I have finally got SMTP set up with Google 0Auth now. Deleted my "app password" in Google Account security...

    Can I use OAuth to authenticate Google SMTP

    Thank you. So google workspace isn't a proper smtp service provider?

    Can I use OAuth to authenticate Google SMTP

    Anyway, according to AI, although Xenforo does support 0auth for site logins, it doesn't apply to smtp settings.

    Can I use OAuth to authenticate Google SMTP

    Well I'll have to see how it goes - I have 30 days to cancel. The email is working fine but the one little thing that makes me want to cancel is having a yellow exclamation mark on my gmail/google account avatar. It looks awful. I found google workspace extremely unintuitive and just want a...

    Can I use OAuth to authenticate Google SMTP

    So having set up Google Workspace email, it kept throwing server errors and not sending emails saying username and password issues (they were the correct username and password). The Server AI bot said, set up 2FA and use an app password. So I did that, replaced the SMTP settings password with...

    I hope it doesn’t get suspended! I don’t even like gmail ha ha. I much preferred my previous simple email set up. I can cancel within 30 days though and go back.

    Some emails bouncing with 450 4.7.1 error

    It's supposed to allow up to 500 recipients for one email. Which is ok for now, if that's the case, but as the site grows it won't be.

    Some emails bouncing with 450 4.7.1 error

    Ah - and I've already signed up with google workspace and set up an account - never mind. Maybe I need to check the account level I have. It's the starter one - I think it's up to 2000 emails a day.

    Some emails bouncing with 450 4.7.1 error

    On checking my email plan, although I have good daily sending limits, it restricts to 100 recipients for one email. So I think the issue is at the server end. They don't have a plan that sends to more than 100 recipients for 1 particular email. So it looks like I need a new email provider...

    Some emails bouncing with 450 4.7.1 error

    Not good. I had removed those 12 from the mailing list. This week I've had another 31 bounced. All different email providers. Gmail, hotmail, outlook, icloud, aol, live.com, only 2 yahoo (I contacted the yahoo postmaster after a notification email bounced this week, but got a generic...
