Configure the SMTP server to receive notifications
-
Hi
I have a firewall with pfSense 2.3.2-RELEASE-p1 (amd64).
In the System –-> Advanced ---> Notifications window it is possible to configure the SMTP server to receive notifications.
How should I configure this E-Mail service with a GMail account?
Thanks
Bye

If your using 2 factor with gmail you will need to setup a APP password in gmail that does not require the 2 factor.
