My SMTP email has been working great for almost a year and all of the sudden I’m confronted with this.
EMAIL DELIVERY ERROR: the plugin WP Mail SMTP v2.2.1 logged this error during the last time it tried to send an email:
Mailer: Gmail
{
“error”: {
“code”: 401,
“message”: “Request is missing required authentication credential. Expected OAuth 2 access token, login cookie or other valid authentication credential. See https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/web/devconsole-project.”,
“errors”: [
{
“message”: “Login Required.”,
“domain”: “global”,
“reason”: “required”,
“location”: “Authorization”,
“locationType”: “header”
}
],
“status”: “UNAUTHENTICATED”
}
}
I kept trying to authenticate via my gmail console but kept getting the same error. I decided the best way to solve the issue was to deactivate the SMTP plugin and remove my project and credentials and start all over. I re-downloaded the plugin and all my information was still there. The plugin won’t even allow me enter a new email address in the “From Email” box. I tried to ignored the grayed out email section just assuming it is the correct email. Once I create a new project in the console and tried to authenticate all the fill boxes are total different than before. I’m not able to follow any of the youtubes videos that show you how to configured the SMTP into gmail console. I tried an email test as well and that doesn’t work either. It says — You cannot send an email. Mailer is not properly configured. Please check your settings. If there is some way to completely delete my old information on my plug it and start fresh I could fix the problem. Any help would be appreciated
