Pentaho DI Send Mail. Read timed out

Question

I am trying to send an email from my Gmail account. Bellow are the SMTP details that I provided.

• Server: smtp.gmail.com
• Port : 465 (also tried 587) Use
• Authentication: Yes
• Authentication User: my full email id
• Authentication password: my password
• Use Secure Authentication: Yes
• Secure Connection Type: SSL

This is the error that I am getting.

2016/03/16 17:35:45 - [ftp-poc].Mail - ERROR (version 5.2.0.0, build 1 from 2014-09-30_19-48-28 by buildguy) : Problem while sending message: javax.mail.MessagingException: Could not connect to SMTP host: gmail-smtp-msa.l.google.com, port: 465; nested exception is: java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out

I tried these two things.

1. ping smtp.gmail.com - Successfull
2. telnet smtp.gmail.com 465 - I get a empty black screen with a cursor blinking. No prompt or any text appears when I type. But the cursor moves.

Gmail安全性-您需要通过允许从gmail端进行“不太安全”（类似）访问来授权访问。
