Troubleshooting Account Test Errors

If You Are Using Gmail 

If you use 2-Step-Verification and get an error when you test, you can try to use an App Password.

  1. Go to your Google Account.
  2. Select Security.
  3. Under "Signing in to Google," select App Passwords. You may need to sign in. If you don’t have this option, it might be because:
    1. 2-Step Verification is not set up for your account.
    2. 2-Step Verification is only set up for security keys.
    3. Your account is through work, school, or other organization.
    4. You turned on Advanced Protection.
  4. At the bottom, choose Select app and choose the app you using and then Select device and choose the device you’re using and then Generate.
  5. Follow the instructions to enter the App Password. The App Password is the 16-character code in the yellow bar on your device.
  6. Tap Done.

Tip: Most of the time, you’ll only have to enter an App Password once per app or device, so don’t worry about memorizing it.

If You Are Using Outlook 

Verify that the email address entered into Infinity Reminders matches the email entered into the employee profile. 

Inside Infinity 

Verify that the SSL authentication mode selected for the incoming and outgoing email servers are accurate. 

Ensure that the outgoing server authentication mode is correct.
