I try to sending an E-Mail via Gmail and sendEmail. I have try some configurations but nothing works.

 sendEmail \ -o tls=yes \ -f \ -t \ -s smtp.gmail.com:587 \ -xu \ -xp some-safty-password \ -u Hello World \ -m This is an E-Mail text. RESULT: sendEmail[11181]: ERROR => ERROR => SMTP-AUTH: Authentication to smtp.gmail.com:587 failed. 
 sendEmail \ -o tls=yes \ -f \ -t \ -s smtp.gmail.com:465 \ -xu \ -xp some-safty-password \ -u Hello World \ -m This is an E-Mail text. RESULT: sendEmail[11213]: ERROR => smtp.gmail.com:465 returned a zero byte response to our query.

Find a solution with comment from andrew.46. I have to activate 'use less secure apps' in Google-Account (). Than following code works:

sendEmail \ -o tls=yes \ -f \ -t \ -s smtp.gmail.com:587 \ -xu \ -xp some-safty-password \ -u Hello World \ -m This is an E-Mail text.
