    Here's our guide for setting up an SMTP using Gmail: https://www.jotform.com/help/392-How-to-Use-Your-Gmail-Account-as-Your-Email-Sender-via-SMTP. You have to use your full email address as the username and use port 587/TLS respectively.

    Also, you cannot use an SMTP when both Send Uploads as Attachment and PDF Attachment are enabled in the email settings. These features will only work when noreply@jotform.com is used. If you'd like to use your own email as the sender, you need to disable these in the form.
