Typically, you'll need to (at least I did) https://support.google.com/mail/answer/185833?hl=en-GB If not, you may want to switch to one. If so, you may want to make sure it's still active, and check to see if your organization changed any policies that might be causing the issue, whether that's disabling certain protocols, or enforcing MFA. FWIW, when I was using gsuite with Mutt (for work), I would typically have to auth once for IMAP and once for SMTP. Good idea trying alternate ports, but you may also want to doublecheck that your provider is not blocking or hijacking SMTP (and see what you get using telnet and / or openssl s_client to connect to smtp.gmail.com directly). Kevin's suggestion should also help show any issues along those lines. w

If so, trying leaving it blank so Mutt can try all possible authenticators it knows about. You might also enable debugging (-d 2) and see if the debug file gives any interesting information. After enabling TLS, the SMTP server would typically send an AUTH line indicating acceptable authentication mechanisms, for example: 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN XOAUTH2 PLAIN-CLIENTTOKEN OAUTHBEARER XOAUTH Since you compiled against SASL, it should be able to handle at least LOGIN and PLAIN. -- Kevin J.

GMail SMTP: no authenticators available?
Our org's email is hosted by Gmail (via GSuite). I had been using neomutt (built from MacPorts) successfully for years. Recently though, I can no longer send email successfully using GMail's SMTP servers. I get the error, "No authenticators available". IMAP still works fine. This change occurred while I had a neomutt session open; it was working one day when I left, but the next day, no bueno. Although I had been using neomutt above (because it's what's available as mutt in MacPorts), I also tried compiling and installing real mutt (2.0.4) from source and I am seeing the same behavior with real mutt as well[*]. I don't know if it's relevant, but prior to not working at all, I'd had to enter my password whenever I start mutt for IMAP access, as well as *each time* I wanted to send a message via the SMTP server. The following in my muttrc was used successfully util this problem began: set smtp_url = smtp://u...@example.org@smtp.gmail.com Where u...@example.org is my hosted gmail address. I also tried the following with the same results: set smtp_url = smtp://u...@example.org@smtp.gmail.com:587 set smtp_url = smtps://u...@example.org@smtp.gmail.com I haven't seen any other traffic about this on the list, so presumably it's not a general problem. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
