[Django]-Unable to connect to gmail smtp linode django apache2 setup

5👍

Newly created Linode accounts restrict the use of mailing ports (25, 465, and 587) by default.

In an effort to fight spam, new Linode accounts created after Tuesday, 5 November, 2019 have mailing ports (25, 465, and 587) restricted by default (see our blog post here for more information).

However, If you would like to use your Linodes for sending emails, you will first need to configure :

  1. a valid DNS A record and
  2. rDNS for any Linodes that you plan to use to send emails.

You can see how to do that here: [source]
