Lonnie,
Everything I have been reading indicates to use the full address, but I
tried it without as you indicates. Note that I saved the settings and
rebooted. Still same message when attempting to test the SMTP relay. Maybe
Gmail has changed something other than need to turn on allow access to less
secure apps? I'll try another email server in the morning. So far nothing
is working to get it functional again.
Thanks all for your help.
Cody
