1) PHP

Make sure OpenSSL is uncommented. (In other words, it's loading in PHP)

2) vBulletin Mail Settings (AdminCP → vBulletin Options → Email Options)

SMTP: Yes
SMTP Host: smtp.gmail.com
SMTP Port: 587 (Can be 465 or 587, one should work)
SMTP Username: youraccount@googledomain.com (Gmail or Google Apps account)
SMTP Password : youraccountpassword
SMTP Secure Connection: TLS

(This information from Google was used to set this up when we first started: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/a...n&answer=13287)

This setup has worked for us for a long-time without any hassles. We do have our mail hosted through the Google Apps system.

587 returned errors for me.

465 worked great

thanks for this thread peeps it helped a great deal.
