email notification not working

Hi all,
I'm trying to setup on my TNAS F210 the email notification upon reboot.
I'm choosing "custom SMTP server" and I entered:

SMTP server: smtp.gmail.com
Port: 465
username: my gmail email address
password: my gmail password
auth method: TLS/SSL

I then click "test email" and I never get any test email (yes, I have already checked my gmail SPAM folder)...

what are the correct values to send out email through gmail SMTP ?

{L_BUTTON_AT}f18m
Unless you previously activated Less secure apps access on your Google account, this is no longer possible; you can use an App password instead, as long as 2FA is active on your Google account.

I don't have 2FA auth enabled in Gmail... is there any other SMTP server (eg from terra master) that I could use?

If notifications will be under 1000 a month, try SMTP2go's free option
