Doesn't seem to be a Gerrit error but rather GMail SMTP refusing your credentials.

"Mail Error: SMTP server rejected auth: 220 smtp.gmail.com ESMTP k77sm27266486pfj.65 - gsmtp"

Can you try with another SMTP?

Luca.

This is weird since a 2xx response indicates success and 220
in particular is the greeting given by the server when a client
connects, not when authentication credentials (correct or otherwise)
are given. I'd look into if there's an intermediate firewall that's
interfering with the SMTP session. At least in the past Cisco PIX
boxes have been known to do this.

> Can you try with another SMTP?

I'd suggest the OP to not use Gerrit to send to Gmail but to
use a local relay that in turn may use Gmail.

Oh yes, Magnus is right :-) I have been tricked by the "SMTP server rejected auth" which isn't coming from GMail SMTP but rather from Gerrit.

There is then definitely a bug in Gerrit (or the SMTP client stack) because 220 is definitely a warm welcome:

"220 - <Server Name> service is running (also called SMTP Error 2.2.0)
SMTP Status 220 : This is normally the first message you
will get back from the server. It means the mail service is
running (ie. your mail server is running). It will normally
contain a welcome message and/or the title of the SMTP
software and, sometimes, the version number of the mail
server software. SMTP Reply 220 is effectively a "Hi
There, I have just this second finished starting up - I
am ready to go and at your command" informational
message."

Luca.

The following fix worked for me:

Login on your PC under your gerrit mail account and open:

https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps

Set "Access for less secure apps" to On.
