Comment (by Delawen):

 Maybe GMail is not an option.

 See https://docs.pretalx.org/faq.html


 > We run into issues when using Gmail. In Google’s eyes, pretalx is a less
 secure app, which you’ll have to grant special access. Even then, Gmail is
 known to unexpectedly block your SMTP connection with unhelpful error
 messages if you use it to send out too many emails in bulk (e.g. all
 rejections for a conference) even on GSuite, so using Gmail for
 transactional email is a bad idea

 It is the only FAQ they have, so it must be important :)
