If you have hosted your website already it advisable to use the email or create an offical mail to send the email Let say your url is www.example.com. Then go to the cpanel create an email which will be send@example.com. Then request for the setting of the email. Change the email address to send@example.com. Then change your smtp which will be mail.example.com. The ssl will remain 465
