Generate dedicated token for auth_password to send email of alert output to corporate accounts

[Pravin S]

Hello Guys,

Need a quick help on process of generating token for "auth_password"  for corporate official account, cannot use the gmail account. 

Please can anyone suggest the most viable, secure and easy option to generate token password for corporate email accounts.

# Your smtp server address

smarthost: smtp.gmail.com:587

auth_username: from_...@gmail.com

auth_identity: from_...@gmail.com

auth_password: 16letter_generated token # you can use gmail account password, but better create a dedicated token for this

headers:

From: from_...@gmail.com

Subject: 'Demo ALERT'

Google for "Gmail App-Specific Passwords" - but they can only be used on accounts which have 2FA enabled.
