When connecting your Gmail account to WillowSpace using SMTP, follow these instructions:

1. In WillowSpace > Account > Integrations > Use SMTP, select Gmail from the provider dropdown menu
2. From name = your name
3. User name = your (Gmail) email address
4. Click on the link for help in creating an App password
5. Go into your myaccount.google.com > Security (left hand side)
6. Go to Signing in to Google > App passwords (if you don't see it, you need to enable 2-step verification)
7. Generate a new App password by selecting "Other" from the app dropdown and call it something like WillowSpace
8. Copy that new app password and paste it into your WillowSpace SMTP password.

Gmail integration can also be connected much more easily with the "connect" button!
