I am using the WP SMTP Mail plugin with Zoho mail to send emails for my WordPress website.
But when I activated Two-factor Authentication on Zoho by my mobile phone number, the SMTP got “SMTP Error: Could not authenticate”
Do you have any solution that I don’t need to disable Two-factor?
Thank you!
Third-party application as SMTP plugins can’t access when you enable Two-factor Authentication.
Zoho provides a separate password for each third-party app to access.
You need to log in to your Zoho account manager accounts.zoho.com, at the Security tab you can see Application-Specific Passwords. Create a password for the SMTP of your website. Then try sending a test email, and the problem is solved.
