SMTP Server for FMS suggestions

great thanks. Does it work in the FMS admin console?
(that's all I need, gmail still not working even after creating an app password)

It uses standard authenticated SMTP with a username and password. (there is an API as well)

You can still use gMail with SMTP from FileMaker but you need to create a special 3rd party app password from your Google settings. It works fine. See

Thank you @ultragolden very helpful!

That's good info. Thanks!

Hello, any idea where or if you can still create app specific passwords? Apparently it is not an option in Gmail anymore or at least hidden somewhere. Instead Enable API Services has to be aquired!?

To be more precise in GMAIL account settings it is still offered to create an app specific 16 letter password but unfortunately it seams not to work at least not for me using it in SendMail script step via SMTP settings. HELP PLEASE. MAYDAY MAYDAY .. Thank you!
