    If the customer doesn't need to send to recipients outside their organisation, the second server with no authentication may be the better option.

    Unfortunately this is not an option as the customer does need to send to recipients outside the organization

    Re: SMTP Authentication causes error

    On the Konica Minolta the Gmail email address isn't inserted where the device email address goes for Gmail but where the device name is, is this the same for the Ricoh

    Another odd one, but it was on O365 on a Ricoh. Kept getting authentication error, no 2FA enabled. Ended up being the password. We changed the password to something a bit less complex and it worked. Very strange but I only saw it once.

    Another thing to keep in mind is the 04 has a smart op panel. I find sometimes the panels default the on screen keyboard to some Chinese keyboard and I have to go in and change it through Screen Features under User Tools (I think its under something like Language and Input but don't have one in front of me atm). Now that I think of it, maybe this is why the complex password on the situation above wasn't working.
    This reminded me of something I encountered once. Spent half a day setting and resetting every variable we could think of to get the email to work, ended up changing the password to something simpler to get the solve. Had to be a character or something that isn't translating, even if it's just for troubleshooting purposes if you aren't doing an app password I would change it to something incredibly simple to try. So much wasted time on that box.

    Holy shit! That did it. Not like it was a complex password before (made it strictly for the scan to email setup. Will not be used for anything). I had tried setting up a different account for it as well. Never thought about it but both had ! in the password. I just changed the passwords and both accounts are now working. Apparently Ricoh does not like !. Thank you

    Glad it helped man, I think mine was a _ on a Kyocera password but it just seems like some of these copiers have trouble with certain special characters for whatever reason. I've started to just try and use upper, lower, and numbers only.

    While this is definitely interesting, and something to keep in mind for future, I can't help but point out that enabling 2FA, and creating an App P/W as I suggested days ago would have also resolved the issue (in a more secure way), had you tried it.
    Just saying...

    I try to avoid the use of punctuation characters. I have encountered sites that only allow @ # $ % ^ & *
