Error sending email: Error: Invalid login: 535-5.7.8 Username and Password not accepted. Learn more at

I'm using Nodemailer to send emails for a password reset feature in my application. The error suggests that my credentials are not being accepted for authentication, but I'm sure the credentials are correct.
Here's some additional information:
- I'm using a Gmail account to send emails.
I've also checked the following:
- The
process.env.SMTP_EMAILandprocess.env.SMTP_PASSWORDvalues are correct. - I've tried enabling access for "Less Secure Apps" temporarily, but the error persists.
- My network connectivity is fine, and I can access external resources.
Could anyone help me troubleshoot and resolve this issue? Is there anything specific I should configure differently when using Nodemailer with Gmail's enhanced security features? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and assistance!
Best regards,
[Shoppie]
