SMTP mail not working

[j_jindal1]

Hi,

I'm running on SMF 1.1.13 and trying to setup my forum for SMTP mails using gmail. My host has stopped PHP mails. Please help me setting it up.

I tried with the settings given in different threads here but none of them worked for me..

I'm getting similar errors continuously here..

: fsockopen() [<a href='function.fsockopen'>function.fsockopen</a>]: unable to connect to smtp.googlemail.com:465 (Connection timed out)
File: /home/XXXX/public_html/Sources/Subs-Post.php
Line: 973

Could not connect to SMTP host: 110 : Connection timed out

I used the following settings..

smtp.googlemail.com

SMTP port :465

Mail address [email protected]

Password   xxxxx

Please help...

Thanks
