adetheprince stmp I get a blank page site wont load until I change it back to mail from mysql database.

I have already tried that dear!. If I change it to stmp, ssl or even tls the site wont load, I must edit it from the database tables (setting, mail-drive ) to mail, then the site load but I still get the same error (something went wrong) and the email never arrive ( even in spam mails). So for now the forum is impossible to register.

Try smtp as driver and tls as encryption

Ok now new error after correcting the stmp to smtp the site load but still registration failed, but I can see new error which is complaining about my Gmail is not allowed or something wrong with my account? even after I enabled the app allowed.
I am sorry for the trouble but I think I am almost there.:

Sorry I meant (Change account access for less secure apps) in my Gmail account.
Anyone had this similar error/issue please help!

Voila Its finally fixed!!! after googling the error ( ERROR: Swift_TransportException: Failed to authenticate on SMTP server with username "myemail@gmail.com" using 3 possible authenticators ) It was something wrong with account settings so its working now thanks for your help clarkwinkelmann, and the email arrived after few resend is this normal cause the first attempt didn't send but after 2 attempts I got double email for verification!

adetheprince You should see all the messages in the "sent" folder of Gmail. The time it takes to send them is decided by Google servers. I don't think Gmail offers any guarantee of quick sending, that's why dedicated (paid) services to relay email exist.

Same problem.
All works and from 4 days emails stop work.
I change all. No results.
