Configure an account in several PCs
I want to configure a unique gmail account in several machines/PC, but when an email is sending, comes an error message: "The message could not be sent using Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.googlemail.com for an unknown reason. Please verify that your Outgoing server (SMTP) settings are correct and try again."
I would appreciate. Thanks

Underneath Account Settings, try to change the 'Authentication type' to 'OAuth2' for both, incoming and outgoing server.
