Error connecting to Gmail SMTP from WD

As of yesterday we started getting the following error when trying to connect to gmail SMTP from our windev app.

"A certificate chain processed, but terminated in a root certificate which is not trusted by the trust provider"

This happens when using 587/TLS and 465/SSL

We do have "allow access to less secure apps" enabled in our gmail accounts

Does this mean we need to start digital signing our application?

Any ideas?

Joris,

adding

EmailConfigure(emailParameterMode, 1)

before "emailstartsession" did the trick.

Many thanks!

Hi Steve,

I do not find any function available for EmailConfigure(emailParameterMode, 1)

Could you explain further ?

Regards,

You need V22 for that...

I am having the same issue. I am starting to get customers stating that my windev app does not send emails via their gmail account which has been working for years.

I am currently using rev 21. Does upgrading to 22 and adding the code EmailConfigure(emailParameterMode, 1) before EmailStartSMTPSession really work?

It is because Google blocks sign-in attempts from apps which do not use modern security standards (mentioned on their support page). You can however, turn on/off this safety feature by going to the link below:

Go to this link and select Turn On

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

Moreover google block an ip when you try to send a email since a unusual location, so, you can unblock in the next link

and clicked in
