jules.maas on "[Plugin: WP Mail SMTP] GMAIL "SMTP Error: Could not authenticate""

Argh. wp_mail is not sending ANY email via the WP-Members app required for a restricted section of my website. I activated this plugin to fix that problem, but EVERY TIME I try to send a test email to my personal email address (jules.maas@gmail.com) I get this error: "SMTP Error: Could not authenticate"

I've filled out all the fields as follows:

From Email: nwamotc@gmail.com
From Name: NWAMOTC Webmaster
Mailer: Send all WordPress emails via SMTP
Return Path: Set the return-path to match the From Email (checked)

SMTP Host: smtp.gmail.com
SMTP Port: 465
Encryption: None (If I select SSL or TLS, I get THIS error: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/14257)

Username: nwamotc@gmail.com
Password: ******** (current & correct password)
