ok, i turned on 2-step verification, generated 1 password for "App passwords" that gave me a 16 character string which i copied into the password location under private/appconfig.ini:
server = smtp.gmail.com:465 sender = professor8...@gmail.com login = 'professor8...@gmail.com:eakwlqljrsdeyj16' tls = true ssl = true where i changed the login string so i didn't give away my security. so what do you think? lucas On Wednesday, August 17, 2022 at 11:34:58 AM UTC-4 Clemens wrote: > Generate an app password, as follows: > https://support.google.com/mail/answer/185833?hl=en > > This should solve it, hopefully. > > Regards > Clemens > > On Wednesday, August 17, 2022 at 5:20:49 PM UTC+2 lucas wrote: > >> hey one and all, >> >> on May 5th, 2022, gmail imposed the 2 step verification on its smtp >> service. how do we configure web2py to still use our gmail accounts to >> send smtp for password retrieval. >> >> thank you in advance, lucas >> > -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
