Fixing Error 2147220973

Do you run Gmail with 2 authentication issues? This jointly prevents the use of SMTP with basic authentication. Create a custom application in your Gmail security settings to provide a new secret to your email application.

1. Sign in to your Gmail account.
2. Go to https://security.google.com/settings/security/apppasswords.
3. Select “Custom”.
4. Enter “Gmail Smtp” or something
5. Click “Generate”.
6. You receive a secret sign.

Use this token as a secret in your email application and not as your own secret.\
