Hi,

when i try to save SMTP Mail settings with a google account my complete site crash and return no response.
When i restart nginx and php all works normal but nothing is saved in DB..

Is the SMTP save method bugged?

I use the newest version 3.8.8
 
Ok the frist problem is solved. my host blocked smtp ports. but all ports now open.

now i can see a error message:
SMTP Exception>>
SMTP Error: Could not authenticate.

i try to connect with google:
smtp.gmail.com
465
myAdress@gmail.com
******************
SSL

i try also
TSL with 587

both return the error
 
"Could not authenticate" means that it can reach the server but the credentials are wrong.

My credentials are 100% correct and working on the google website.
I think your script cant handle google smtp? Can you do something?

Thanks
 
By the way, did you knew that Google has a policy against using GMail as an transactional email provider? Just saying in case that you want to keep going in this way. You have plenty options way better than GMail for transactional email like SendGrid or Mailgun. Most transactional email providers get you a very reasonable free quota, you should check those.

I test it again.

It doenst work.

@Rodolfo, i try other providers when the most popular email service of the world works correctly.
But it looks like that nobody test the cms with google....

Can anyone confirm that the script works with google??? Or is it a bug?
