Send mail as gmail smtp

To send an email using Gmail's SMTP server, you'll need to use the following settings:

SMTP Server: smtp.gmail.com Port: 587 (or 465 for SSL/TLS) Username: Your Gmail address (e.g., [email protected]) Password: Your Gmail password

Here's an example of how you can use these settings in a programming language like Python:

import smtplib

# Set up the SMTP server
server = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com', 587)
server.starttls()  # Enable TLS encryption
server.login('[email protected]', 'your_password')

# Set up the email message
msg = 'Subject: Test email\n\nThis is a test email sent using Gmail\'s SMTP server.'

# Send the email
server.sendmail('[email protected]', '[email protected]', msg)

# Close the SMTP connection
server.quit()

Make sure to replace [email protected] and your_password with your actual Gmail address and password.

Important notes:

Enable less secure apps: To allow your app to access your Gmail account, you need to enable "Less secure app access" in your Google Account settings. You can do this by going to the Google Account settings page, clicking on "Security," and then toggling the switch next to "Less secure app access."
2-Step Verification: If you have 2-Step Verification enabled on your Google Account, you'll need to generate an App Password and use that instead of your regular password.
Rate limiting: Gmail has rate limits on the number of emails you can send per day using their SMTP server. If you exceed these limits, you may receive an error message or your emails may not be delivered.
