First check that SSL is ocrrectly enabled on your php server.
Then go to global parameters and enter valid gmail account (gmail does not allow anonymous emailing through its servers).
Last, to be sure, enter smtp server as : ssl://smtp.gmail.com (to force ssl access)

hi There, thank you for your help. I believe I have set up ssl on my PHP server but I am not sure how to check this. I have tried to input ssl://smtp.gmail.com to force ssl but after I have saved it and return to the global parameters page I see only this smtp.gmail.com. I have pasted an excerpt from the log in the hope that it helps. Please can you point me in the right direction?

Following your last post I went through my system to try and understand whether or not I had an ssl connection. I did not! So I have now ensured that I have the SSL set up work and it appears to be working as it should. However I still can't connect to gmail.the log files suggest it is still an smtp connection failure. I did seem to have trouble changing the values on the global parameters page. Please can you help? I feel that I am very close to having a working platform. I have attached a screenshot of my global parameters and a copy of the log file.

smtp account must be a valid gmail account (something like yourname@gmail.com)

Hi Bob,

I had the same problem. I found the answer at:
https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/wiki/Troubleshooting

The solution for me was to enable less secure apps in the google account settings.

hope this helps for you too,

Ruud.
