Solved

Hello,

I just bought an IP surveillance camera and I can't send email alerts (Gmail), even during testing. I should mention that the motion detector works.
Thank you.

Hello,

What parameters did you specify for messaging?

Smpt : smpt.gmail.com
Port : 465
Encryption : SSL
Authentication checked
Username : my gmail address
Password for my gmail address
Send to : my gmail address
Sender : my email address

I tried changing one setting at a time, but the test always fails.
Thank you

Very well for the settings, except that it’s smtp and not smpt

You need to go to your Gmail account and enable the "Allow less secure apps" setting: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6010255

If you are using "two-step verification," then the "Allow less secure apps" setting is not available. In this case, you need to create an app password that you will use for your camera instead of your usual password.
