Cannot send mail from iphone google server rejects

Frustrating!

When Google's servers reject your email from an iPhone, it's usually due to a configuration issue or a temporary problem. Here are some troubleshooting steps to help you resolve the issue:

  1. Check your email account settings:
    • Go to Settings > [your name] > Passwords & Accounts > [your email account].
    • Ensure that your email account is set up correctly, including the correct username, password, and server settings.
    • Make sure that the "Use SSL" option is enabled for the incoming and outgoing mail servers.
  2. Verify your email account credentials:
    • Double-check that your email account credentials are correct, including the username and password.
    • If you're using two-factor authentication (2FA), ensure that you've enabled it correctly and have the correct authentication code.
  3. Check your iPhone's mail settings:
    • Go to Settings > Mail > Accounts > [your email account].
    • Ensure that the "Outgoing Mail Server" is set to "SMTP" and the server is correct (e.g., "smtp.gmail.com" for Gmail).
    • Make sure that the "Use SSL" option is enabled for the outgoing mail server.
  4. Check for temporary issues:
    • Try sending a test email from your iPhone to a different email address (e.g., a Gmail account).
    • If the test email fails, it might be a temporary issue with Google's servers. Try waiting for a few hours and then try sending the email again.
  5. Check for app updates:
    • Ensure that your iPhone's Mail app is up to date.
    • If you're using a third-party email app, check for updates and install the latest version.
  6. Reset your iPhone's Mail settings:
    • Go to Settings > Mail > Accounts > [your email account].
    • Tap "Delete Account" and then "Delete" to remove the account.
    • Go back to Settings > Mail > Accounts and add your email account again.
  7. Contact Google support:
    • If none of the above steps resolve the issue, you can contact Google support for further assistance.
    • They may be able to help you troubleshoot the issue or provide additional guidance.
