I have enabled the two-step verification to my gmail account. I have tried for application specific password for Thunderbird, but still Thunderbird showing this error message. And the same case with outlook.com email account. How can i configure my email accounts.
I had the same problem before, you have to double check the configuration.

I want to be able to use my Google Workspace email alias when automating email sending using yagmail and gmail's SMTP server.
I have set the default "Send Email As" address from the main email (#gmail.com) to the alias email (#domain.com), which is fine when sending manually. I currently have 2SV enabled with my main email & app password sending emails properly through yagmail, but it still shows the sending address as the main email. I tried authenticating with the email alias and a new app password, but I am receiving the following error:
smtplib.SMTPAuthenticationError: (535, b'5.7.8 Username and Password not accepted).
I tried a few solutions found online, such as this one (https://support.google.com/mail/thread/127655543/gmail-alias-not-working-it-says-the-password-i-am-entering-for-the-alias-is-wrong-but-it-s-correct?hl=en), to no avail.
Why is using App password fine for my main email but not my domain alias? How can I automate sending emails using domain alias? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!
I made a custom e-mail address on Cloudflare, and have tried adding it to Gmail as a sender address following this tutorial, but I get stuck on the SMTP Server, Username, Password section when I get the following authentication error:
Authentication failed. Please check your username/password.
Server returned error: "535-5.7.8 Username and Password not accepted. Learn more at 535 5.7.8 https://support.google.com/mail/?p=BadCredentials d18-20020a170906305200b00730799724c3sm240511ejd.149 - gsmtp , code: 535"
I have tried with Port 465 and SSL and Port 587 and TLS.
This answer solved it.
To generate an App Password you can do this:
Go to your Google Account.
Select Security.
Under "Signing in to Google," select App Passwords. You may need to sign in. If you don’t have this option, it might be because:
a. 2-Step Verification is not set up for your account.
b. 2-Step Verification is only set up for security keys.
c. Your account is through work, school, or other organization.
d. You turned on Advanced Protection.
At the bottom, choose Select app and choose the app you using and then Select device and choose the device you’re using and then Generate.
The steps were copied from here.

I'm not entirely sure what the problem is, we are using our own mailserver..
However, there are some restrictions to Gmail usage, which can require you to make some changes on your Gmail account.
Have a look at this to allow a new service access to your Gmail account:

And here to allow your Gmail access to less secure services and programs:

I am using Drupal 7 and the SMTP module. The Gmail (Apps for work) account uses 2 step verification and an app password so that the website can auth using SMTP. Fine so far.
The problem is that the user account, say johndoe#domain.com should not be the from address, but info#domain.com should. info is already a working alias for johndoe.
We must use johndoe to actually authenticate, an alias does not work for this. But, although the from address in debug is info#domain.com, in my mail app the sender still seems to be johndoe#domain.com.
Any ideas?
Edit: I've read that the Google SMTP service overrides the from address with the user account. Even if the from address is an existing alias?
This is really weird.
Please try adding alias email address in gmail.
Open gmail => Setting => Accounts => Send email as: => Add another email address
Gmail will send confirmation code to the alias email. After you add the alias address, gmail smtp will accept "from" parameter with your alias address.
if I understood you, if you want to use the account (johndoe#domain.com) to authenticate, but you do not want it to be shown as a sender, and the sender should be (info#domain.com), then you must follow the following Steps.
It is more than obvious that you must be a GSuite administrator.
First you enable third-party authentication, go to:
Google GSuite Security=>
basic configuration=>
Unsecured applications=>
(click here) Access the settings of unsafe applications=>
Enable access for all users to unsafe applications (not recommended)
Second, in your application for sending mail do this:
Sender Address: info#domain.com
User: johndoe#domain.com
Server: smtp.gmail.com
Port: 465
Encryption: ssl
Password: yourpassowrdaccount

There is lots of posts with users having same error, but none of them works for me...
I am trying to send email reports in Hudson/Jenkins...
Our mail server uses SSL/TLS, I configured Jenkins for TLS, then I am getting this error:
Client does not have permissions to send as this sender
When I try javamail using code, it sends the email properly. Also, Thunderbird works fine.
Any ideas? Do I need to contact mail server administrators?
Finally got it, thanks to Friso
Had to set my email address in System Admin e-mail address under Jenkins Location.
The email should be changed in three places as below as per version 2.19.4:
Extended E-mail Notification - If using SMTP plugin
Email Notification - SMTP Authentication
Jenkins location - System Admin e-mail address
I had the same issue, and I discovered that credentials were no more valid, so I asked to the IT department who told me that credentials were no more need on LAN.
Now it works!
