*I'm running Dspace v1.5.2.  I've been following the tutorial that I found
here: http://blog.stuartlewis.com/2009/09/05/using-gmail-with-dspace/

I've applied this patch to my Email.java file and re-packaged:
http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-234

Below is my dspace.cfg file as it pertains to the mail settings:*

##### Email settings ######

# SMTP mail server
mail.server=smtp.gmail.com

# SMTP mail server authentication username and password (if required)
mail.server.username = [email protected]
mail.server.password = password

# SMTP mail server alternate port (defaults to 25)
mail.server.port = 465

# From address for mail
mail.from.address = [email protected]

# Currently limited to one recipient!
feedback.recipient = [email protected]

# General site administration (Webmaster) e-mail
mail.admin = [email protected]

# Recipient for server errors and alerts
# alert.recipient = email-address-here

# Recipient for new user registration emails
# registration.notify = email-address-here

# Set the default mail character set. This may be over ridden by providing a
line
# inside the email template "charset: <encoding>", otherwise this default is
used.
#mail.charset = UTF8

mail.ssl.enable = true

mail.extraproperties = mail.smtp.socketFactory.port=465, \
        mail.smtp.socketFactory.class=javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory, \
        mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback=false

# Default language for metadata values
default.language = en_US

*Any suggestions on what might be causing the problem here? I've tried
connecting to 1 other smtp server and received the same error message.  I
have double checked the username and password for the smtp server and it
appears to be correct.*
