Sending emails through SMTP with PHPMailer

Question

I\'m trying to send SMTP e-mails using PHPMailer, but I keep getting this error message, any ideas how to get rid of it?
I\'m trying to connect via SSL on port 465.

Answer 1

try port 25 instead of 456.

I got the same error when using port 456, and changing it to 25 worked for me.
