    It’s sort of an undocumented feature, but the underlying PHPMailer class will let you specify the connection type & port in the SMTP Server setting:

    ssl://smtp.gmail.com:465

    Maybe the plugin authors could add this the to FAQ?

    Hi Justin,

    Words cannot express how grateful I am for this valuable string of advice. It just works.

    I am really sorry about this late reply. I was on vacation and could not inform you.

    I wish you and your team all the best with the great job you are doing to keep WordPress going….
