Email Notification Fault

I am trying to set up an email notification but at present I am getting this error:

It looks like you’ve got the wrong combination of having SSL enabled and port - if you’re supposed to be connecting with SSL try port 465 and 587.

It turn out the problem was actually authentication or rather I did not need to add username or password, which I think is strange but it worked so there you go.

It works on me like a charm after I set usename blank
