FAQ

Gmail sending frequency limit

When sending some emails, you may encounter the following error:

json

{
  "code": "ECONNECTION",
  "response": "421-4.7.0 Try again later, closing connection. (EHLO)\n421-4.7.0 For more information, go to\n421 4.7.0 About SMTP error messages - Google Workspace Admin Help 3f1490d57ef6-e7f7352f44csm831688276.30 - gsmtp",
  "responseCode": 421,
  "command": "EHLO"
}

This is because Gmail rate-limits sending requests from domains that are not specified. When deploying the application, you need to configure the server's hostname to the domain you have configured in Gmail. For example, in a Docker deployment:

yaml

services:
  app:
    image: nocobase/nocobase
    hostname: <your-custom-hostname> # Set to your configured sending domain
