How to set up an app password for an Alias Gsuite/Google Workspace?
If you're using an alias Gsuite/Google Workspace and the 2-step verification activated, please follow this 3 steps tutorial to set up your app password.
Step 1 : Set the password
Go to your Google Account and open the Security tab. Search for App passwords in your search bar, or go directly to App passwords .
An app password is a security layer that Google generates so you can use apps like Mailwarm without your main password.
Enter a name for the app and click on Create.
Step 2 : Copy the password
Copy this password , you'll need it to configure your SMTP on Mailwarm. Once you click done, it will disappear and you won't have access to it anymore.
Step 3 : SMTP settings on Mailwarm:
Now you're all set to connect your account to Mailwarm, and add a new email account. Then fill in the SMTP form as following :
Email address/reply-to : your alias address
Smtp Host : smtp.gmail.com
Port/protocol : 587/TLS
Smtp Username : your main email address
Password : the app password you have generated
Hit the Test & Save button, you'll receive a confirmation email if this worked properly.
