I am trying to use phpMailer to send confirmation messages to users via email. My code is this:

// smtp to send messages
$Email_Host = "smtp.gmail.com"; //smtp host
$Email_Username = "******@gmail.com"; //email username
$Email_Password = "******87s"; // email password`

It was working, but now I get the message:

SMTP Error: Could not authenticate.
