587 port is set by default, tls prefix is not. So set 'tls'.]]> Lord Daedra Oct 09, 2014, 04:19 AM https://forums.modx.com/thread/78280/smtp-settings-for-gmail#dis-post-512249 https://forums.modx.com/thread/78280/smtp-settings-for-gmail#dis-post-431624

mail_smtp_auth Yes
mail_smtp_hosts smtp.gmail.com
mail_smtp_pass [password]
mail_smtp_port 465
mail_smtp_prefix ssl
mail_smtp_user [[email protected]]
mail_user_smtp Yes

The two pieces that tripped me up was the "prefix" (SMTPSecure) -- I was looking around to see where you set it for ssl and just missed this one. The second part was the port -- I was trying 587 until I found a reference to 465.

At any rate, with these settings I was sending email through Gmail from the manager on my barebones Ubuntu server (ie. doesn't have sendmail).]]> bmorley Jul 28, 2012, 10:54 PM https://forums.modx.com/thread/78280/smtp-settings-for-gmail#dis-post-431611
