    Hi there…

    I keep getting this error 401 with my Gmail setup.
    – No other SMTP or email plugs installed
    – All credentials are correct

    If i revoke the authorisation it works fine for a day or so and then shows this error again.

    Do you guys know what is the common reason for this?

    Cheers!

    EMAIL DELIVERY ERROR: the plugin WP Mail SMTP v1.7.1 logged this error during the last time it tried to send an email:

    Mailer: Gmail
    {
    “error”: {
    “errors”: [
    {
    “domain”: “global”,
    “reason”: “required”,
    “message”: “Login Required”,
    “locationType”: “header”,
    “location”: “Authorization”
    }
    ],
    “code”: 401,
    “message”: “Login Required”
    }
    }

  • Hi @salo400,

    When you get a chance, could you please let me know if you don’t have an error while sending a test email? It might be an issue with generating an access token after you authorize Google to send emails. Please make sure everything is okay (Client ID/ Secret) with the app you created, or redo all the steps again following the tutorial.

    I hope that helps!

    Hi @salo400 – We haven’t heard from you in about a week, so I’m going to go ahead and mark this ticket resolved. If you still have questions, though, please feel welcome to continue the conversation.
