-I think,you are entering wrong “Password”
-Please enter your real(correct) password

  • And "Auto Email id " should be your “Login id”

For example - I have created one gmail account
like"xxx@gmail.com" and set password as “xxx123”
Then use same mail id and same password in “Outgoing Email Setting”
-Then it will save

  • Also check your Gmail Setting
    → Go to Settings-> Click on “Forward and POP/IMAP” →
    Keep POP and IMAP as “Enable”

It happen to my too. But the problem is not ERPNEXT is gmail. You need to enable:

  • Allow access for less secure apps.

That worked for me.
