Why is my Gmail SMTP settings not working?What are the Gmail SMTP settings?
That is an easy question.
Gmail is a great webmail app, but some people find it more convenient to access their own inbox from an email client like Thunderbird or Outlook - this requires setting up your outgoing server by entering the correct settings.First, open the configuration panel of the mail software:and fill in the fields with the Gmail SMTP server settings, which are:Gmail SMTP server name: smtp.gmail.comGmail SMTP username: your Gmail addressGmail SMTP password: your passwordGmail SMTP port: 465You can then choose your security and authentication options - for more information, see our article on SMTP settings.
And of course you can also use Gmail's POP details to receive emails.However, remember that Gmail's SMTP comes with severe sending limits to prevent spammers from using your outgoing server to delete junk emails.
The limit is 100 recipients at a time and 500 messages per day: if you cross this restriction, your account will be blocked by Google.In addition, your SMTP server is based on shared IPs that cannot guarantee you full deliverability, as they can also be used by spammers who seriously damage your reputation, thus increasing the possibility that your legitimate email will also be filtered by anti-spam systems.
