@innospaceauto,

There are a couple of steps that you can take to remedy this.

The first step is to turn on the mail debug logs.

mail.debug=true in the advanced settings on the tenant.

The second step is to confirm that you are able to send a test email.

Additional details can be found in our troubleshooting guide.

Finally, Gmail, especially with recent security upgrades, may require you to have MFA enabled or not allow apps to access its SMTP servers unless specifically allowed.

I was able to get a test email to send from my personal account by generating an "application password" and using SSL to send.

I hope this helps!

Thanks,
