Hi,
I'm not familiar with authenticating from a local Exim to a remote SMTP
server. However I do know that Google recently introduced a new setting
that prevents clients from authenticating unless using OAuth2. In
particular, username/password authentication such as is used for SMTP,
IMAP, POP etc does not work.
To allow these to work again:
1. In your Google Admin Console for your domain go into the *Security >
Basic Settings > Less Secure Apps Access* settings and tick the option
that enables your users to turn on a setting for their account to allow
less-secure apps to authenticate using it.
2. The user (in this case the one you're supplying the password for to
authenticate to smtp.gmail.com) can then go into their account's
security settings to *Allow Less Secure Apps*.
You can read more about this new security feature at
https://support.google.com/a/answer/6260879
This *might* explain your problem, or it might be that your Exim isn't
trying to authenticate at all, or is but using the wrong password. Running
it with suitable debugging options might help diagnose if this is the case.
Cheers,
Mike B-)
