Tarqi (a user on the Arch Linxu forum) helped me figure it out: set v15-compat ssl-method=auto set smtp=smtp:/<my e-mail>@gmail.com:<encoded / escaped password>@smtp.gmail.com:587 set smtp-auth=plain set smtp-use-starttls works. The key was encoding the password (escaping certain characters): https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1425811#p1425811 perl -p -e 's/([^A-Za-z0-9])/sprintf("%%%02X", ord($1))/seg' Paste it in a terminal and enter your password. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ HPCC Systems Open Source Big Data Platform from LexisNexis Risk Solutions Find What Matters Most in Your Big Data with HPCC Systems Open Source.
