DCE with Gmail SMTP

[DCIM_Support]

Hi, 

Have anyone tried DCE using gmail smtp to send email alert? I am keep getting the below error although the login username and password is correct.

I have enabled account access for less secure app from the following search, but yet unable to send.

Test environment: 

Home network - no firewall etc

DNS set to google public DNS, no issue for DCE to ping smtp.gmail.com 

DCE 7.2.5

smtp.gmail.com port 587 enabled secure SMTP in DCE 

** have disabled 2-Step Verification, and other steps in the link but shows no luck.. anything I have missed?

Have you tried using port 25 instead?  I usually have better luck with port 25, SSL enabled.

Found the root cause. Need to ensure which google account you have signed in when enabling "less secured app" in the below page 

https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps

no issue with port 587
