*** Notice that when i use Restricted Gmail SMTP server version setting without ticking ssl secure option it sends the email into only gmail users and puts the mail in junk.

i hope anyone has any hints can help me with this problem

hi Joecohlber-DE145,

The error says there was a time out and it looks like your network is restricted to use SSL. Which port did you use? 465? Because that is the port you should use… Either than or 587 which stands for TLS (both supported by gmail). Also please clarify which port did you use before enabling SSL (the default 25?).

Could you please tell me what smtp server address did you enter for gmail? Is it smtp.gmail.com?

Could you please open cmd from start menu and run “telnet smtp.gmail.com 465” to see if you get error?

Have you consulted this with your network administrator?

Martin
