EmailService error, won't send email

I am running the latest version of Sonarr on Xubuntu 15.10 with all latest updates. I cannot get the email notifications to work. I am getting the follow message in the log:

There was an error sending an email.: 535-5.7.8 Username and Password not accepted. Learn more at
535 5.7.8 https://support.google.com/mail/answer/14257 pk7sm4694126igb.17 - gsmtp

The exception text is:

System.Net.Mail.SmtpException: 535-5.7.8 Username and Password not accepted. Learn more at

The error seems to indicate a login issue but there shouldn’t be. I followed all the suggestions at the support URL in the error and everything is set up the way it should be. The same email credentials work fine in SABnzbd (or anywhere else I tried it).

Any tips to resolve this would be great.
