This is not functioning properly for me. As a matter of fact, since I've been using this service the email feature with or without Swift Mailer activated has never worked once regardless of settings. (It could just be a bit of ignorance on my part...)
This is the current error that I receive when attempting to test the connection.
There was a problem communicating with SMTP: The SMTP connection failed to start [ssl://smtp.att.yahoo.com:465]: fsockopen returned Error Number 110 and Error String 'Connection timed out'
same thing with a gmail account.

I read in an earlier response that it may have something to do with the port being blocked by my site's host server, so I'll contact them and update. It's a bit confusing and I hope that someone can assist in the matter because there isn't much software out there like ftools and I was really excited to use the service.
