'nodejs -nodemailer cannot send email after allowing less secure apps access

This is my first time using nodejs with nodemailer to send an email from a dummy account I have .When trying to send an email I got the error

"  code: 'EAUTH',
  response: '535-5.7.8 Username and Password not accepted. Learn more at\n' +
    '535 5.7.8  https://support.google.com/mail/?p=BadCredentials w17sm3259346ejk.112 - gsmtp',
  responseCode: 535,
  command: 'AUTH PLAIN'"

My credentials are correct and I have enabled access from less secure apps to my gmail account.I also tried removing @gmail.com from my user but I still get the same error .

My code :

const mailer = require('nodemailer');

const  transporter = mailer.createTransport({
  service: 'gmail',
  port:587,
  auth: {
    user: '[email protected]',
    pass: 'my pass '
  }
});

const  mailOptions = {
  from: '[email protected]',
  to: '[email protected]',
  subject: 'Sending Email using Node.js',
  text: 'That was easy!'
};



function sendEmail(){

  transporter.sendMail(mailOptions, function(error, info){
    if (error) {
      console.log(error);
    } else {
      console.log('Email sent: ' + info.response);
    }
  });
  
}

module.exports = {sendEmail};

I would appreciate your help here . Please don't mark this as a duplicate as I have already searched here .

Receiver's mail also should enabled less secure apps. otherwise your mail not reach the destination.

You also need to temporary allow access to your account in order to sign in on your new application or device.
