Have you run a test on your J! mailer settings?

In J! global settings, Server tab, where you set your mail settings, at the bottom is a "send test" button.

We just use the J! mail API, so things like SMTP connection failures aren't a "Fabrik thing", it's just using the built in sendMail() function.

Thanks, I guess that it is google issue.

Should work with Google. smtp.gmail.com, SSL, port 465 (or TLS, 587), your GMail username and password.

If using 2fa on GMail (which you should be), refer to ...
