So I have no idea where this issue came from, everything was working fine beforehand and then it randomly broke :/

XF failed to send through the SMTP server you set it to use. Specifically, it seems to imply that your username/password were wrong. You should check those if it keeps happening.

In general, we would recommend sending mail through a local system rather than an external SMTP server, given an option.
