There is very little detail provided in your question:

What email server/vendor are you using (Gmail, Office365, Exchange, Yahoo)?
What protocol are you using (IMAP, SMTP, POP3)?
How does your code look like?
Are you using SSL/TLS?
Do you have any logs?

Remember that for Gmail you need to turn 2-Step verification on, to use App passwords:
