Cool! This should be added to one of the markdown files in the whimsy repository.. Here's another option: https://nodemailer.com/smtp/testing/ Craig - it looks like gmail has changed. It's their service, if you use it, I guess you need to abide by their changing rules. You should have gotten an email with a subject line of "Critical security alert" that explained that the "Sign-in attempt was blocked" and leads you to the following page: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833 This, too, should be updated in the markdown files. Finally, you can see what user and group the apache server runs under by looking at /etc/apache2/httpd.conf. Search for User. Either this user need to be able to read your ~/.whimsy file, or you need to change httpd.conf to use a different user. If you change the user, some of the subdirectories in /srv will need their permissions changed. setupmymac has a --user option which will change the server and these directories to run with your user id. If you do that, you might want to lock down your server: https://github.com/apache/whimsy/blob/master/MACOSX.md#configure-apache-httpd-to-run-under-your-user-id - Sam Ruby
