I had the same issue before I resolve by Login to my Gmail account via browser on the same computer then go back to my project it works
Otherwise do the followings i. Allow access to less secure app for your Gmail account ii. Make sure you don’t send bulk emails, normally Gmail block your account if you send bulk emails iii. Debug to see if os.environ.get(‘DB_USER’) and os.environ.get(‘DB_PASSWORD’) are your Gmail credentials (I thought dB refer to database credentials) From: 'Delvin Alexander' via Django users <django-users@googlegroups.com> Sent: 28 April 2022 07:59 To: Django users <django-users@googlegroups.com> Subject: Re: SMTP Authentification error okay i did both but now i am getting this error.
