Send email through my gmail account

[Benny Kaye]

The mail() object is a fairly recent, and welcome, addition to Memento. It utilizes a config object with fileds for SMTP host, port, username and password. However, I want to use Gmail, which requires TLS. I get an error that it cannot be translated to TLS.

Odd thing is that it does seem to run on the phone. My issue is on the PC version. Any solutions or suggestions?

Here's what I received on this from the developer. I hope it helps...

email() method supports TLS.

But the client doesn't support 2-step verification, therefore you must create an app-password for it:

I've checked to send email from Gmail with following config:

var cfg = {"host" : "smtp.gmail.com" , "port":587, 

"user":"user...@gmail.com" , "pass":"the app password" ,

"from":" user...@gmail.com"}
