How to configure automatic email notifications via gmail for every backup job

More usefully, what did it do? I’m not hearing that it said nothing.
If no mail was tried, then the lines I posted would jump to below.
Basically, there are normally two statements on backup endings.
SendMail (if it runs) goes between them.

2025-01-20 07:43:14 -05 - [Information-Duplicati.Library.Modules.Builtin.SendMail-SendMailComplete]: Email sent successfully using server: smtp://smtp.gmail.com:587/?starttls=always
2025-01-20 07:43:14 -05 - [Information-Duplicati.Library.Main.Controller-CompletedOperation]: The operation Backup has completed

except without the SendMail stuff. If it tried SendMail and failed, you’d see that, so maybe it didn’t try, which could be due to the --send-mail-level double quoting. Also note that you requested that no mail be sent normally, so I hope you got at least a warning. What if you omit it or try all?

  --send-mail-level (String): The messages to send
    You can specify one of "Success", "Warning", "Error", "Fatal".
    You can supply multiple options with a comma separator, e.g. "Success,Warning". The special value "All" is a shorthand for "Success,Warning,Error,Fatal" and will cause all backup operations to send an
    email.
    * values: Unknown, Success, Warning, Error, Fatal, All
    * default value: all
