gmail smtp server

[kamikazebaa]

what did i do wrong in this configuration?

Use smtp: yes
server : smtp.gmail.com
port:587
auth: login
smtp user: [email protected]
smtp pass: the thing i got from app passwords in google
and all the check marks here are set to no

this all worked in an smtp tester but not in phpbb, can anyone help me?

SMTP server address: tls://smtp.gmail.com
SMTP server port: 465

TLS goes with port 465? i thought it's on 587?

[Noxwizard]

It varies depending on the settings and the host. Most properly configured SMTP servers that support tls:// should be using port 587.

Yes, it's usually 587 (as noted above). My point was that someone that had this problem previously got it to work with those settings.
