I'm a retired programmer, been through the ranks of COBOL, C, Pascal, Assembler and now primarily using PHP.
I maintain a few motorcycle club related websites voluntarily. I developed these using PHP on the backend delivering HTML to the user.
Recently, I've had issues sending emails from one of my sites, so I switched to using PHPMailer and sending via Gmail. I believe the site, that was having issues, may be on a shared server with another domain that may be Blacklisted.
For about a year, using PHPMailer, the emails have been working well, but on 5/31/2022, Google decided that the use of their gmail needed OAUTH verification.
This seemed a pretty straight forward change, set up credentials, client Id and Client Secret inside of Google for the gmail account and then use these credentials, from PHP, to complete the send email request.
I've watched lots of YT videos and read lots of internet tutorials and pages, but I feel I'm missing one simple piece of the puzzle to get this process to work.
Hence my request anyone here who may be able to help.
Thanks
