Introduction
π§ Send every Joomla email through Gmail, without a Gmail password on your site. Gmail SMTP Connect signs in to Google once with OAuth 2.0 and sends contact form replies, registrations, password resets and every other site email through Gmail's SMTP server. It is for Joomla site owners and agencies who send their site's email from a Gmail account.

This is a paid extension. A subscription covers 1, 3, 5 or unlimited sites, includes 1 year of updates and support, and the extension keeps working after it expires: https://www.web357.com/gmail-smtp-connect-joomla-plugin/pricing
Works with Joomla 4, 5 and 6.
Why It's a Game-Changer
🔐 No Gmail password in Joomla
You sign in with Google once. The plugin stores an OAuth token and renews it on its own.
📮 Every extension sends through Gmail
The plugin takes over Joomla's mailer, so core forms, registrations and third-party extensions need no extra setup.
🧭 Setup with a guide for every screen
Create an OAuth client in Google Cloud, paste two values into the plugin and click Authenticate with Gmail.
✅ Know that it works
A connection status and a test email show that mail goes out before your visitors need it.
🛠️ Clear help when the host blocks SMTP
If your server cannot reach smtp.gmail.com, the test email reports it and the docs list what to ask your host.
