Using these devices for over 20 of our remote offices and I can't get these email notifications to work at all, whether it's to our internal email servers, or to a brand new Gmail account with "less secure devices" enabled.
RN10200 running 6.4.1
What's the secret, what's the trick - I'm pulling my hair out here
With gmail, you need to turn off two-factor authentication as well as enable "less secure devices".
The smtp is smtp.gmail.com, the port is 587, and check "use TLS". Set the "from" address to the google email account (x@gmail.com).
It might take a little while for google to propagate the account settings on their end.
Yep, those are the exact values I've been using and they haven't worked. Toggled off TLS, and tried port 465 as well. No luck
Two factor authentication is disabled by default and the less secure devices is as well and I've only enabled the latter
