- You may have to turn 2-factor authentication OFF for your Google account if you're having problems sending mail. I'd recommend creating a 2nd account just for sending mail from Access. This way your primary account is still safe and secure with 2FA.
- You may need to make an App Password for your Google account. Go into your Google Account settings (not Gmail, your Google Account) and go to Security - Signing in to Google - App passwords. There you can setup a special username and password just for your Access app to send email thru your Gmail account. Not sure if I covered this in the seminar or not because it wasn't required at the time.
