Hi all, i am trying to send an email using zend mail with gmail smtp. Upon clickin on my action to send mail, my application just returns the following error " Unable to connect via TLS". So i tried SSL on port 465 and that returns an error as well saying "could not open socket". Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong and how to solve this?

My code for sending the mail is as follows:


                    require_once 'Zend/Mail.php';


                    $smtpServer = 'smtp.gmail.com';
                    $username = 'example@example.com';
                    $password = 'secret';


                    $config = array('ssl' => 'tls',
                    'port' => '587' ,
                    'auth' => 'login',
                    'username' => $username,
                    'password' => $password);

                    $transport = new Zend_Mail_Transport_Smtp($smtpServer, $config);




                    $mail = new Zend_Mail();

                    $mail->setFrom('example@example.com', 'Some Sender');
                    $mail->addTo('reciever@reciever.com', 'Some Recipient');
                    $mail->setSubject('Test Subject');
$mail->setBodyText('This is the text of the mail.');


$mail->send($transport);
