Hi again,

Blue Iris Tools is not written by blueirisoftware.com and I think it comes from ipcamtalk - but I don't use it. The message is telling you it cannot be sent to the SMTP server as it is not available. I think you may need ipcamtalk to sort it out.

As we used to say sur la navette sous la manche, "Merde" !

You may find it better to add your original French text, as the translations are not perfect :!:

Right on Tim, I speak French too and suggested the same about posting in French. GMTA. I don't use Blue Iris Tools either....

You need to relax the security on the gmail account, it should be somewhere in the settings for the account.

Gmail has recently stepped up security requirements to use their service on 3rd party platforms. I suspect that's the reason.

You need to do:
Server: smtp.gmail.com
Port: 465
Connection security: SSL/TLS
Authentication Method: OAuth2
Then your username/password credentials.

I think gmail now uses service accounts to allow automated process access to your account.

That link says:
This article is for users of our Google Workspace migration and sync products.
I interpret that to mean unless you're using google workspace migration... it doesn't apply. I'm not sayin' I'm right, I'm just sayin' that's how I read it.
