java outlook client application getting 535 5.7.3 Authentication unsuccessful exception [duplicate]

I get this error when I try to send a mail using JavaMail API. I am sure that the username and password are 100% correct. The Gmail account which I'm connecting is an older account, because they say it takes time for it to work with new accounts.

I had same issue :
I refer this link, I have followed below steps it worked for me.
By default Gmail account is highly secured. When we use gmail smtp from non gmail tool, email is blocked. To test in our local environment, make your gmail account less secure as
Login to Gmail.
Access the URL as https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps
Select "Turn on"

The given code snippet works fine on my Gmail account, so this problem lies somewhere else. Did you follow the link given in the error message? It contains the following hints:
Make sure that you've entered your full email address (e.g. username#gmail.com)
Re-enter your password to ensure that it's correct. Keep in mind that passwords are case-sensitive.
Make sure your mail client isn't set to check for new mail too often. If your mail client checks for new messages more than once every 10 minutes, your client might repeatedly request your username and password.
Especially the last point is important. Google is very strict in this. If you're trying to connect Gmail for example more than 10 times in a minute programmatically, then you may already get blocked. Have a bit of patience, after some time it will get unblocked.
If you'd like more freedom in sending mails, I recommend to look for a dedicated mail host or to setup your own mail server, such as Apache James or Microsoft Exchange. I've already answered this in detail in one of your previous questions.

I encountered the exact same problem, for me the reason is I have turned on 2-step verification on my gmail account.
After generating a new application-specific password and use that in my java application, this "535 5.7.1" issue is gone.
You can generate a new application-specific password following this official google guide.

I faced the same problem although my username and password were correct, but after some research, I was able to send email through applications by enabling the Less secure app access option on my Gmail account. You can find this feature under security option in the left menu.
Related links:
I can't sign in to my email client
Enable access to less secure applications

Now, Google not supported Less Secure Apps so we are getting this issue.
You follow bellow steps to resolve your Authentication issue during send mail using SMTP.
1 - Enable 2-step Verification in your mail
2 - Once you enabled above, you will able to see App Passwords option in same Security tab
3 - Now generate App Password for Other(Custom)
4 - Use this generated password in place of your gmail password in your code.
Enjoy :)

I have the same error message and this is how I have solved the issue,
Create an app password: here is how we can generate an app password,
1. Visit your App passwords page. You may be asked to sign in to your Google Account.
2. At the bottom, click Select app and choose the app you’re using.
Click Select device and choose the device you’re using.
3. Select Generate.
4. Follow the instructions to enter the App password (the 16 character code in the yellow bar) on your device.
5. Select Done.
I worked for a Spring boot app and I get the app password say, sadsadaffferere for the email address, xyz#gmail.com. So, I need to configure the app properties like the following,
# the email settings
# ------------------
spring.mail.host=smtp.gmail.com
spring.mail.username=xyz#gmail.com
spring.mail.password=sadsadaffferere
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.auth=true
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.socketFactory.port=465
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.socketFactory.class=javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory
spring.mail.properties.mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback=false
support.email=xyz#gmail.com
Everything works fine afterwards

You need to turn on the 'less secure apps allowed' in gmail settings.

If the same credential was working earlier and it stopped working then the primary reason for this problem is password mismatch/changed on gmail client and not updated in Jenkins or other CI server. If that is not the case then check for reasons mentioned by #BalusC

i turned off antivirus and enabled less secure app in gmail, but now google has disabled this option, for that to work you need to do two steps verification and genetare 16 digit password and paste in application.properties replace this 16 digit password.

Wrong host sending SMTP

I'm trying to send a mail using javax.mail. This is my code:
Properties props = new Properties();
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.host", host);
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.port", port);
props.setProperty("mail.user", user);
props.setProperty("mail.password", password);
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props);
But I get this error:
javax.mail.MessagingException: Could not connect to SMTP host: smtp.wrong.server.com, port: 25;
The funny thing is that "smtp.wrong.server.com" isn't the value that I'm passing as host.
It is like Session.getDefaultInstance(props) is returning an already created session with the wrong host name.
There isn't any other place inside my EAR where javax.mail is used (at least not in my code, maybe inside a third party dependecy?).
This behaviour only happens, of course, in PRO environment. The same EAR deployed in DEV and TEST env works fine.
Any help would be appreciated

The problem was with Session.getDefaultInstance. I should use Session.getInstance
From javadoc:
getDefaultInstance
(...)the default session is potentially available to all code executing in the same Java virtual machine(...)Subsequent calls return the Session object that was created by the first call, and ignore the passed Properties object. Use the getInstance method to get a new Session object every time the method is called.

It seams your are not using the correct key for your proerties. see Javadoc for javax.mail.Session
It is expected that the client supplies values for the properties
listed in Appendix A of the JavaMail spec (particularly
mail.store.protocol, mail.transport.protocol, mail.host, mail.user,
and mail.from) as the defaults are unlikely to work in all cases.

Determine Mail Settings from Domain

I'm currently writing a simple Java application that will allow the user to send and receive email. When the application starts, it prompts the user to log in in the following format:
username#provider.com
passwd
Currently I have the field split so that provider.com is placed in its own string. Is there any way I can use the java mail api or something else to retrieve the settings for "provider.com?" I'm looking to get back strings such as "smtp.gmail.com" when the user has a gmail account and so-forth. Any help would be appreciated!
EDIT: To clarify what I am after...
final Properties properties = new Properties();
properties.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
properties.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
properties.put("mail.smtp.host", "smtp.gmail.com"); // I want to get this (smtp.gmail.com)
properties.put("mail.smtp.port", "465"); // And this (465)
// from the user entered "gmail.com" or "live.com"

I just found this after some more searching: Finding SMTP host and port knowing the e-mail address using JAVA API
It seems there is no predictable way to do this. Very disappointing.

How to get all unread emails in JAVA from lotus notes domino server

I am new to Notes JAVA API and developing a utility where I require to read all unread mails from a Lotus notes id.Now when i try to use lotus.domino.Database.getAllUnreadDocuments() it gives me the following exception
NotesException: Not implemented
at lotus.domino.cso.Base.notImplemented(Unknown Source)
at lotus.domino.cso.Document.markRead(Unknown Source)
at com.email.ReadEmailRemotely.readEmails(ReadEmailRemotely.java:428)
at com.email.ReadEmailRemotely.run(ReadEmailRemotely.java:96)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)
My application is a plain JAVA application in eclipse using NCSO.jar
My question is , do i need to extend lotus.domino.AgentBase ?
If yes then what all dependencies do i require as , JAVA app is not allowing to extend it.
& if no then is there any other way to get all unread mails?

An easy way (assuming you are can edit the NSF) is to create a hidden view which lists only the documents you want to get back.
Then access that view and iterate through it.

If the server supports IMAP or POP3, you can use JavaMail API, which is pretty easy and has a flag for unread messages.
Properties props = System.getProperties();
props.setProperty("mail.store.protocol", "imaps");
try {
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);
Store store = session.getStore("imaps");
store.connect("myserver.com", "user", "pass");
Folder inbox = store.getFolder("Inbox");
inbox.open(Folder.READ_ONLY);
FlagTerm ft = new FlagTerm(new Flags(Flags.Flag.SEEN), false);
Message messages[] = inbox.search(ft);
}

You will have to switch to using notes.jar instead of ncso.jar.
In order to use notes.jar and access the getAllUnreadDocuments method, you will need to install Notes and Domino 8 or above on the system where your code is running.

May require Secure Connection(SSL), Use the following properties to connect mail server supporting POP3 protocol:
properties.put("mail.pop3.socketFactory.port", "POP3_PORT");
properties.put("mail.pop3.host", "POP3_SERVER_HOST_NAME_OR_IP");
properties.put("mail.pop3.socketFactory.class", "javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory");
properties.put("mail.pop3.socketFactory.fallback", "false");

Must issue a STARTTLS command first when trying to send a SimpleMailMessage in Grails

I try to send a message in a grails application. I use Java code with this problem tho, here is my code
SimpleMailMessage message_ref = new SimpleMailMessage();
JavaMailSenderImpl sender_ref = new JavaMailSenderImpl();
sender_ref.setHost("smtp.gmail.com")
sender_ref.setUsername("testAccount#googlemail.com")
sender_ref.setPassword("topsecret")
message_ref.setTo("testRecipient#gmx.de")
message_ref.setSubject("Hello there")
message_ref.setText("How are you")
sender_ref.send(message_ref)
I'm getting the following exception:
SMTPSendFailedException: 530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first
I found a similar problem here on stackoverflow here
Must issue a STARTTLS command first. Sending email with Java and Google Apps
but it didn't help me cause he used an different approach.
Can somebody tell me what's wrong? I'm expecting the error is not in the code but in some configuration file and this is where my knowledge edges.

Quoting from the Grails mail plugin docs:
grails {
mail {
host = "smtp.gmail.com"
port = 465
username = "youracount#gmail.com"
password = "yourpassword"
props = ["mail.smtp.auth":"true",
"mail.smtp.socketFactory.port":"465",
"mail.smtp.socketFactory.class":"javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory",
"mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback":"false"]
} }

I can't help you much, but your problem is basically that you need to use SSL to communicate with the server. Google does not allow plain-text communication for a lot of good reasons. I don't know much about grails, but I assume it has some sort of ssl-support. If it does not, you're probably better off doing it in javax.mail.
StartTLS is just a text-command you send to the smtp-server to explicitly start secure communications.

Properties properties = new Properties();
properties.put("mail.smtp.host", smtpHost);
properties.put("mail.smtp.port", smtpPort);
properties.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
properties.put("mail.user", userName);
properties.put("mail.password", password);
