Chronograf set Alert for Gmail

I need to set up a Chronograf alert for Gmail, but I can't do it.

What I've done are the following steps:

But when I press the "send test alert" button, no email is sent to me.

I also wrote the body of the email in the "alert rules builder" section just in case. but nothing has changed. How can I fix it?

Try using less secure apps. log into your gmail account, or https://myaccount.google.com/security

Scroll down to "less secure apps" and enable that. If i recall, gmail blocks apps it considers to be less secure. I had to set this a couple of years ago to use gmail to relay alerts.

Also, your port number is wrong it should be 465 (SSL) or 587 (TLS) gmail smtp configutation
