IMPORTANT UPDATE: less secure app option is no longer available. See the following steps: Instead of turning on the "Less secure app address" (no longer available from the 30th May 2022) you need to generate a password for an app. 1. Go to ‘Settings’ and choose ‘Security’ 2. Go down to ‘Signing in to Google’ and choose the ‘App password’ 3. Select ‘Mail’ as the app and set ‘Other’ as the device 4. Insert the email address that you're using (not the alias that you want to set up) and then copy the generated password 5. Use the email username (without @gmail.com) and the generated password on the second step of the video (under SMTP server bar) Everything else is the same as explained in the video. - Gaijin (Thanks for mentioning this)
Thank you @MicahOrmand! I was able to get a generated password. But still not able to get logged in. Not sure where I’m going wrong. Used my gmail password, and the generated one also, No luck ….
I finally found you!!! you are the only person that has made sense to me when it comes to step by step (actually showing what needs to be done) straight to the point and easy to follow! I really appreciate you! thank you!👏👏🙌
I just wanna say, this still works. Great video, thank you so much for making this. Saved me tons of money and kept my business look professional and safe for my costumers.
I can't even begin to express how many immediate problems I needed to solve that just got answered in under five minutes! Thanks, Mister! Instant subscribe!
@@StewartGauld Me, too, Stewart! As this puzzle I've embarked on continues to evolve, I will definitely be tapping your vids- I'm finally launching a media production company and am in the beginning stages of linking devices and establishing brand.
@@StewartGauld again! Proving my point. Hands down my man! 🙌 One suggestion though, could you remake some of your most watched videos like "how to use zoom..." Since these are already made an year ago, and there might be a lot of new features that you can describe in remake. I think these will help your channel grow more. :)
THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! I have tried to do this several times. I finally read the comments and saw the update. My account has been successfully linked with my Gmail. I totally appreciate you!!
I concur with la22- so stoked it was so easy and you were incredibly clear and every step you showed looked exactly like my computer. It only took 25mins while watching every step you took I did with you. thanks sssoooo much as this navigating all the different platforms and technology stuff is quite overwhelming. thanks heaps
IT WORKS! I had to redo the process a few times I kept confusing myself once I hit the step to copy and paste the code. Thank you so much. FOLLOW THE UPDATED INSTRUCTIONS everyone
Hi, Thank you. You have saved my day. I am encountering a problem ‘ when ever i send a email so someone it goes in their promotion tab can you please let me know how to fix that.’ Thank you
Hi Stuart, such a clear, easy to understand video - thank you! Just a quick question, can you revert your security settings back after you've set up the email alias?? Or will it make it not work? Thanks :)
Hi Stewart. Thanks for the informative video. Here's a question not addressed in the video: What about mass emails to send. Do you know if gmail allows 1000+ emails from my list of people, or does that require a separate company specializing in mass email sending? Thank you for your reply in advance. Cheers!
I managed to do this a couple of weeks ago following your instructions and am pleased! I am just starting to set up my email marketing, and i put a sign up form on my website, which I tested to sign up for with my alternate email address. However, I landed in spam. Does anybody else have experience with this? Do you think it might have to do with the fact it is not a "real" business name? help! Thank you!!
Hello Stewart, it seems as though there is always "that one" who isnt able to have things work. I ensured that all of the steps were followed closely as it was a very simple & straight forward video. It seems that even though I have "less secure apps" turned on, when I go to try everything a second time, and click "add account" it still does not go through. I am not sure what has happened as I also have 2-step verification off. I would love some further guidance with this! Thank you so much!
Hi Stewart awesome video. For me unfortunately, the error message “Authentication failed” is not resolved by the troubleshoot you described. I’ve checked UN and PW, ensured the correct security settings but no joy. Wondering if you can think of anything else it might be. Thanks again for the great content!
@@astroguyco Yeah man just change your password, refresh the browser and start the process from the beginning. That worked for me but I can't guarantee that it's the universal fix. Good luck.
I reset my password and I’m still getting the “authentication failed” even after following the step for the less secured apps. Can someone please help?
I kept thinking my only option for a business email would be to pay for a website domain that was going to be at least $60+/yr. For my purpose a website is unnecessary so I was reluctant to sign up. I came across your video and successfully registered my business emails for a total of $12/yr. Thank you so much!!
@@StewartGauld I'm in the same boat! I can't pass the "less secure access part" Less Secure App is on and password is correct. I've tried so many times
Hi mate, yes email is free , however, you still need to own a domain or purchase one if you don't already have one (every business should have a domain) under $20 per year. Thanks!
i appreciate you. thank you very much. i got stuck on signing in with app password, but i saw your update on your description and it worked perfect. and everything presented is straight forward. you are the man
Yo your the goat for this tutorial, I was scared to try because in order to try you have to pay the $12 fee first but it worked after I changed my password!!! Thanks bruv
I tried this today. It didn't work for me. Even after following all the steps mentioned, it kept throwing the same error message. But your tutorial is nice. I really liked it. Seems like google has added more complexity to the security. very difficult to turn-on the less secure app access!
you have to reset your gmail password after you turn ON less secure app. I just watched his video today and was having the same issue until I saw someone comment about needing to change your password. I hope this helps :)
So happy I tumbled in to this video a life saver! 2 questions why when I send an email using your step by step guide, does it go in to the promotional gmails? And when I get a reply, it goes to my outlook email not in to my Gmail? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance ☺️
Hi, Stewart your video is easy to understand, I'm facing only one problem by adding my email I turn off authentication and turned on less secure app access still it shows that authentication failed. Please I just purchased my domain but I'm not able to add it with my email.
Thanks for still answering the comments 🙂 I had some security questions. Before I was considering making custom domain I had around 12 gmail accounts with a different password for each one of them. I want to know how would this work for this method for example do I need to make password for each allies? and are they all connected to my initial gmail or are they independent?
Thanks Stewart. This information was great and to the point until I got to the less secure app process. I did not have the option to click on app access in ‘Signing in to Google’. It took me approx an hour to figure it out. I had to turn on the 2 step verification, download and add the authenicator from app store, then the app access appeared in the box. I was then able to go back and enter the information SMTP. Considering that I am IT challenged, I am suprised that I was able to figure it out.
Hi, I have tried to do this but it won’t let me create one mind you your video is the best step by step I have watched so far and I followed all the steps even deactivated the 2factors yet nothing happened. Google is definitly not helpful on this matter as they are not responding to their chats so I sent an email and currently waiting. I am so annoyed with this because I am launching my website in few weeks and I don’t have a business email yet 😭
This is a great video and very easy to follow through. Has anyone had trouble adding sending emails? It keeps telling me to add a valid email address but when I go to my domain page, my alias is there.
@@StewartGauld I did. I can't even get to that point. I verified my alias to my fwding email and when I go to set up the sending part it says the email is invalid. I tried sending an email to my alias and that came with an error too.
Thank you so much for this video! So helpful, saves money :) I also had the error and had to change my password and then it worked! Does anyone have any tips for sending from the business email from the IOS mail app either on Mac or iPhone?

Thank you sooooo much this was so easy, I did it step by step with you, almost had issue with the less app secure because I didnt scrolled down´so almost missed it haha But made it through! thank you, you are an angel!.
Thanks for another informative, and extremely clear, video, Stewart. My inbox can get quite cluttered and finding all the emails difficult. Is there a way to silo emails within your inbox so you see emails from each of these alias separately?
Have there been any changes or updates since this video was made? Love the info and want to give it a try. Thanks. BTW ... are you related to Sarah Chrisp of Wholesale Ted? You look like you could be her brother, LOL!
It worked ! I had to reset my password for it to work. Can I enable 2 step verification and turn off less secure apps after I've completed the process?
@@StewartGauld it no longer works if I turn off the less secure apps. Also will the new Google update coming at the end of May which removes the option of turning on less secure apps affect your hack?
AMAZING tutorial and thanks for commenting with the updated process since "Less Secure apps" is no longer working. This worked like a charm... Now Id like to know if I can have 2 separate signatures... or is that too much? haha
Stewart you are AAAMMMAAAZING! I am so grateul to you for the value you provide through your videos. I came across your PM ClickUp video and had to search youtube for what else might be there.

I love your video! Easy to follow and straight to the point!! I have a question. When I try to ‘Add another email address you own,’ a red messages pops up that says “Your other email provider is responding too slowly. Please try again later, or contact the administrator of your other domain for further information.” Is there anything I can do about this?
Great video - I followed the instructions but I can't get past the Authentication failed error even after turning off the less secure apps. I keep getting the same error and I even got a warning email which I confirmed it was me making the attempts.
@@shayankhanvlogs9916 yes, I did - basically you need to do the authentication process very quickly because if not it will timeout on you and give an error.
Hello @Stewart Gauld. Thank you for the great tutorial. Do you know if its possible to change the profile picture for your business/custom email within gmail. It looks very unprofessional with just a letter symbol as a profile picture. Cheers!
Great Video! Helped a ton! Just had a quick question, should I turn off the "Less secure app access" feature once I completed all the steps since my account could be more vulnerable to attacks now. If I try to turn it off, gmail does not allow me to send any emails. Let me know whenever you get a chance. Thanks!
Hi! A year ago I set up a Business account for Free with gmail thanks to your tutorial (thank you so much). Now I am wondering how to authentificate this email in Mailerlite to keep sending marketing emails. I was able to set up SPF correctly but have no clue how to set up DKIM. I was watching your video "How To Set Up Google Workspace SPF, DKIM & DMARC" but it seems that I would need workspace. Is there a way of authentifying this free business account without using workspace? Thank you ☺
Is there any lag time between transferring my Domain to when I can setup my professional email account? I’m actually transferring my professional email as well and concerned if it’s no longer hosted by my prior domain company my e-transfers won’t go through during the switch. I would love your wisdom on this. Thanks for your help, amazing videos, very helpful and straightforward! 💖😊✨
Great content. I was able to follow this instruction and setup my domain with gmail. HOW do I use outlook application (on local machine) to use this email to send and receive emails like I do on gmail platform? Can you please advise? When I try to use outlook application, I do not see an option to add the new email address but only the original gmail address.
I keep getting a message saying,"Your other email provider is responding too slow, please try again later.' Ive been trying for a few weeks now and no further on. If you could shed any light, that would be great, thanks for the fantastic content .
Thank you for this. It worked perfectly. For the moment Im facing with this error: """""Message not delivered. You're sending this from a different address or alias using the 'Send mail as' feature. The settings for your 'Send mail as' account are misconfigured or out of date. Check those settings and try resending.""""" I have not passed 500 emails in Bcc for a day and I have been blocked for 2 days. Do you have any suggestions about this? I will really appreciate your help.

Awesome! Yes you can.
@@StewartGauld it no longer works if I turn off the less secure apps. Also will the new Google update coming at the end of May which removes the option of turning on less secure apps affect your hack?
Your explanation is Easy, understandable, and More Clear,
Thanks for that information.
Glad it was helpful!
@Bedri H Hassan Does it work now bro
Omg this is amazing! Thanks! I need to rewatch this video and follow along.
Glad it was helpful!
@@StewartGauld it is. Ur amazing!!!
@@JeramieSaito thanks!
AMAZING tutorial and thanks for commenting with the updated process since "Less Secure apps" is no longer working. This worked like a charm... Now Id like to know if I can have 2 separate signatures... or is that too much? haha
Glad it helped! Yes you can of course this is up to you.
@@StewartGauld Hey do you happen to have an update since Google Domains has moved to squarespace and its not totally free and easy anymore
thank you my brother! :)) awesome tutorial!! i am all set up, thank you very much!!
You're welcome!
Stewart you are AAAMMMAAAZING! I am so grateul to you for the value you provide through your videos. I came across your PM ClickUp video and had to search youtube for what else might be there. I Saw a lot that I need to learn for my new blogging business. I am sold and have become a subscriber. Thanks again.
You are so welcome! Thanks for joining! All the best with your new blogging business. You should be able to find lots of helpful materials on this channel!
@@StewartGauld Thanks so much. Yeah there is a lot, keep em coming.

The only reason for me is making money, it's my only motive. Thanks for the content 😎😎
Welcome!
I love your video! Easy to follow and straight to the point!! I have a question. When I try to ‘Add another email address you own,’ a red messages pops up that says “Your other email provider is responding too slowly. Please try again later, or contact the administrator of your other domain for further information.”
Is there anything I can do about this?
Hi Vanessa,
Are you try to add another email? Did you try reset your gmail password?
Great video - I followed the instructions but I can't get past the Authentication failed error even after turning off the less secure apps. I keep getting the same error and I even got a warning email which I confirmed it was me making the attempts.
Hey mate,
Did you reset your password and try again?
@@StewartGauld yes, I even switched gmail accounts 🥺
@@StewartGauld you have to do it quickly enough or it doesn't work
@@jcarlospr Hello was you able to solve your problem, I'm facing the same problem please could you guide me on how can I resolve this issue.
@@shayankhanvlogs9916 yes, I did - basically you need to do the authentication process very quickly because if not it will timeout on you and give an error.
Thank you! You helped me save money.
Welcome!
Hello @Stewart Gauld. Thank you for the great tutorial. Do you know if its possible to change the profile picture for your business/custom email within gmail. It looks very unprofessional with just a letter symbol as a profile picture. Cheers!
Unfortunately you cannot.
Thank you it worked! After doing all the steps can you turn back on the 2 step verification for security?
Hey mate,
Yes you can.
@@StewartGauld Thank you!
Great Video! Helped a ton! Just had a quick question, should I turn off the "Less secure app access" feature once I completed all the steps since my account could be more vulnerable to attacks now. If I try to turn it off, gmail does not allow me to send any emails. Let me know whenever you get a chance. Thanks!
Hey mate, you can and your emails should still function.
Do you need to have google domain to do the first part of the video? The Alias section? Thanks
You can do this with other providers too
the coolest youtuber ever
I appreciate it mate!
Hi! A year ago I set up a Business account for Free with gmail thanks to your tutorial (thank you so much). Now I am wondering how to authentificate this email in Mailerlite to keep sending marketing emails. I was able to set up SPF correctly but have no clue how to set up DKIM. I was watching your video "How To Set Up Google Workspace SPF, DKIM & DMARC" but it seems that I would need workspace. Is there a way of authentifying this free business account without using workspace? Thank you ☺
Is there any lag time between transferring my Domain to when I can setup my professional email account? I’m actually transferring my professional email as well and concerned if it’s no longer hosted by my prior domain company my e-transfers won’t go through during the switch. I would love your wisdom on this. Thanks for your help, amazing videos, very helpful and straightforward! 💖😊✨
Hey mate,
Yes it can take time. However, you can use your current hosting provider to set up your email. You do not need to use Google Domains.
Great content. I was able to follow this instruction and setup my domain with gmail. HOW do I use outlook application (on local machine) to use this email to send and receive emails like I do on gmail platform? Can you please advise? When I try to use outlook application, I do not see an option to add the new email address but only the original gmail address.
Glad it was helpful! I will look into this.
Stewart, you just saved me a lot of money!!!Thank you!!!!
Great to hear!
I keep getting a message saying,"Your other email provider is responding too slow, please try again later.' Ive been trying for a few weeks now and no further on. If you could shed any light, that would be great, thanks for the fantastic content .
Hi John,
I'm sorry to hear. Did you change your password? Have a look through some of the other comments solutions people have added below.
Thanks for this! How do I add my alias email address in the mail app on iPhone to be used for my reply from email address?
You can on your Gmail app but not from the mail app.
@@StewartGauld thanks for the reply!
I really don't know what to say other then Thank You.
Welcome!
Took me a little while to get it set up but it works perfectly. Thank you so much! Smashed that like button!
Glad it helped!
Thank you for this. It worked perfectly. For the moment Im facing with this error:
"""""Message not delivered. You're sending this from a different address or alias using the 'Send mail as' feature. The settings for your 'Send mail as' account are misconfigured or out of date. Check those settings and try resending."""""
I have not passed 500 emails in Bcc for a day and I have been blocked for 2 days.
Do you have any suggestions about this? I will really appreciate your help.
Hey Dane,
That is odd! I will have to look into this!
Thank you so much I was able to create a business email following you step by step. I will share this link with others 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks so much! This is great info and worked on the first try
