Show these again :
and compare with mine ....
Btw :
means : your pfsense can't connect to smtp.gmail.com (port 465). You can't connect - which is different as being refused for bas user or password.
Some one is blocking you somewhere in between - upstream. -
Do a simple check to that port...
If pfsense can resolve and talk to that port you should get back successful test
You can test ipv6 as well
You could also do a packet capture while your testing or trying to send the mail to what is going on
Here is sniff while testing port - you can see it opens syn, and then closes the connection with fin

Hi Guys!
Finally, I received the test e-mail and the report emails with Gmail as the e-mail server.
I've tried to understand how e-mail communication works, but I do not understand (maybe because I'm not the e-mail specialist on earth ^^), what differences there are in the processes you already have here have explained ...
Not using port 25 = standard port and not TLS encrypted
test mail is not report = both uses different code / language
auth with e-mail and pw = to increase the securityAm i right with this?
So the next step is to configure the mail server on port 465 / TLS and configure auth with name and pw?Thanks and best regards!

Correct, not many home isp allows 25 out, if they do allow it - its only to their smtp servers on their network.
To send to gmail use 465, and setup an app password.

Good info, I'll have to try this tonight.
