Mail won’t send: “Incorrect authentication data”

  • Postman is configured, however when I send a test email I receive the error: Incorrect authentication data. I am using the correct username and password .. What else cold be causing this error? Below are the results from the Diagnostic.
    Thanks in advance!

  • You should enable the allow_url_fopen directive in your php.ini file.
    Contact your web host.
