Gmail smtp server name and port number

The SMTP server name and port number for Gmail are:

SMTP Server Name: smtp.gmail.com

SMTP Port Number: 587 (or 25 for SSL/TLS encryption)

Here's a breakdown of the settings:

• SMTP Server Name: smtp.gmail.com is the hostname of Gmail's SMTP server.
• SMTP Port Number: 587 is the default port number used for submitting email messages to Gmail's SMTP server. You can also use 25 for SSL/TLS encryption, but 587 is recommended for better security.
• Encryption: Gmail recommends using SSL/TLS encryption to secure your email communication. You can use STARTTLS to initiate the encryption process.

Here's an example of how you might configure your email client to use Gmail's SMTP server:

• SMTP Server: smtp.gmail.com
• Port: 587 (or 25 for SSL/TLS encryption)
• Encryption: STARTTLS (or SSL/TLS for SSL/TLS encryption)
• Username: Your Gmail username (e.g., [email protected])
• Password: Your Gmail password

Remember to enable "Less secure app access" in your Google Account settings if you're using a third-party email client or app to access your Gmail account.
