I am using MKR1010 to send an Gmail via SMPT2GO - an SMPT server.. I am sure my code works perfectly fine, but I have an error when executing the code. It said “550 that smtp username’s account is not allowed to send ”. I looked up online and found that many comments under tutorials about SMPT2GO said the same problem. Can anyone explain why, please? Here are the sources and picture of the code.
Found some similar comment around year 2018:
Official guide from the SMPT2GO:
https://www.smtp2go.com/setupguide/arduino/
My own version to make it work with MKR1010
/*
This example connects to an unencrypted Wifi network.
Then it prints the MAC address of the board,
the IP address obtained, and other network details.

For anyone who is interested, this code require a second tab in the IDE that must name arduino_secrets.h and put one line:
#define SECRET_SSID "yourssid"
