Kindle Scribe - Test email inside Calibre failing, help?

I own a Kindle Scribe, and it seems epub and mobi files will only allow handwritten notes if they are mailed to my Kindle. OK. but when I test my setup to mail from inside Calibre, I get this -
raceback (most recent call last):
File "calibre/gui2/wizard/send_email.py", line 223, in test_email_settings
File "calibre/utils/smtp.py", line 181, in sendmail
File "smtplib.py", line 750, in login
File "smtplib.py", line 739, in login
File "smtplib.py", line 662, in auth
smtplib.SMTPAuthenticationError: (535, b'Authentication credentials invalid')

This is from a gmx account. I have verified that the id is the complete email address ("EliteTrickster@gmx.us") and the password is correct. I can email my regular email account from within the gmx account. Any ideas on what this might be? Thanks for any help you can give me.
