   Hi. Another issue that has arrisen due to gmail I think: my smtp sending via email (Google Workspace) has started failing (Error: SMTP connect() failed. https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/wiki/TroubleshootingSMTP server error: Called RSET without being connected)

   From my investigation so far, it looks like Google is no longer allowing SMTP sending via the "Less secure app" option. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72113637/how-to-use-phpmailer-after-30-may-2022-when-less-secure-app-is-no-longer-an-o

   PHPMailer seems to allow using XOAUTH2 to authenticate instead, but this would need to be enabled via the mydbr settings (otherwise I'd need to edit the PHPMailer code directly). Is this something you can/plan to add?

   Cheers,

   You are using Google's app password in mail settings?

   We can take a look at adding XOAUTH2.

   Yes - I was using the SMTP of Google Workspaces (legacy account) which has stopped working as of last Thursday/Friday. Gmail-only users lost this in May 2022 but it seems they are now applying it to other gmail accounts.

   Google XOAUTH2 authentication has been added into myDBR 6.6.2.
