I have this same issue in Kali. Can someone please let me know fixed this please. I can't seem to update and use that command above as it's returning a bash error command.

You have to turn on the "Less secure app access" in your google account's security settings. That way it will accept the password.

Has there been an update here? I have a Gmail account, I turned on the "Less secure app access," but I still got the same error.

[!] It appears your password was incorrect.

I have already checked the password, and it is the correct one. Thank you in advance!

In my case it was due to a 2FA requirement in my Linux mail server, which given this was for a class lab, I didn't mind turning it off. After I did that, then I stopped getting that message. Apparently that program can't handle 2FA currently.

Did you find the solution mate?

I had the error previously and managed to bypass it by setting the less secure app access to on.

However, recently, my script for my school project stopped working suddenly. After some research, it seems Google is making life harder for us:

Hello, i registred in proton.me, but how can i use it, there are only two options

  1. Use a gmail Account for your email attack.
  2. Use your own server or open relay

when i try option one, and type proton mail in the end it's telling me wrong password

Irakli91 avatar Jul 18 '22 18:07 Irakli91

@Irakli91 you have to edit the /etc/setoolkit/set.config and change Gmail to proton mail.

holakunle avatar Aug 05 '22 11:08 holakunle

@Irakli91 sign up at Sendinblue to create a free account, click on your username and click on SMTP AND API. select SMTP and use the details as OPEN-RELAY on setoolkit. same goes for other tools.

i hope this is helpful
