Hello , I am beginner in Node Red. I am trying to set mail from mail node. I am using gmail credentials. The node settings are as follows To xyz@gmail.com Server smtp:gmail.com Port 465 Secure connection ticked User Id abc@gmail.com Password: 8 character mixed case When I deploy this node I find that my login credentials are blanked out. And the mail does not get sent with a error message in debug screen. I tried many times, but could not send the mail. Is there a bug in the mail node? Please help.

[image] Node-red email node and gmail General Found this: https://serverfault.com/questions/635139/how-to-fix-send-mail-authorization-failed-534-5-7-14 Doesn't look like a problem specific to Node-RED, more of a Gmail security thing.

Thanks I will check and revert back

[image] Avipur: with a error message in debug screen Always worth actually tell us what the error message is... Have you also followed the instructions for gmail in the Email nodes ReadMe? [image] node-red-node-email Node-RED nodes to send and receive simple emails.

Hello! Im having the same error. I previously had everything running on a Raspberry Pi with version 1.8.2. Now I am changing the RPi for a server and I installed the same node but version 1.11.0. I have my gmail set to less secure apps already but still the node doesn't save the credentials. Thanks in advance!

[image] marciocaster: I installed the same node but version 1.11.0 Which node is that? node-red-node-email current version is 1.8.3. Can you show a screenshot showing where you are entering the credentials and another after they are lost. You can paste images directly in here.

Thanks for your answer... This is the image before deploying [image] This one is after deploying [image] Thanks in advance!

And this is the node-red-node-email version (I was able to instert only 2 images) [image]

Oh, you are right about the version. I wonder why mine is not offering an upgrade. That is a different issue for me to worry about though. Can you stop node red and start it again in a terminal and paste the log here please, that will tell us about your environment. Copy/paste please not screenshot. When you paste it in use the button at the top of the forum entry field and paste it in.
