I have my config.json file configured as so:

"SmtpSettings": {
    "FromAddress": "noreplyerisonline@gmail.com",
    "FromName": "Eris Online",
    "Host": "smtp.gmail.com",
    "Port": 587,
    "UseSsl": true,
    "Username": "noreplyerisonline@gmail.com",
    "Password": "<password>"
  },

If you could help me reach a solution it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank-you in advance!

 

 

PS: to the admins that warned me for "post hijacking" on the post below, my bad! Just thought it would be better that I post there instead of making multiple posts about the same problem!  Anyway its all good!

My password is already there, I just changed it to <password> for my privacy on the forums.
I will give your less secure apps method a try though, wish me luck and thank you for the reply.

@Kamus this worked, I appreciate your help. Someone should add that in documentation for people using GMAIL.
