READYNAS 102 email Notifications
My email alerts no longer work, and I can't seem to bring them back. I was using Google, but I have an account at SMTP-Pulse that I use for these purposes. It works fine for an ancient Synology Diskstation, but doesn't work for the Readynas 102 with the same settings. I'm running Firmware 6.10.10 which is the current version.
What's the secret to getting email to work?

Is there a guide to setting up gmail for the NAS?
Just this:
If you have a google workspace account, then this would also be relevant:

I suggest downloading the log zip file, and then looking at msmtp.log.
Well, it doesn't tell me much, no matter which email provider I tried, it just says the operation timed out.
Here's the gmail settings.

Here's an attempt using my domain provider's settings.

If you want to try gmail, then make sure you are running at least 6.10.2
Note you might need to create an app-specific password in your google account settings.
I suggest making sure the from address matches the usual address you use for that provider.
