I think you only want :starttls. :ssl tells it to expect a socket that
immediately negotiates SSL; the error suggests the mail server doesn't.
(Note that, because SSL is negotiated immediately, it must use different
ports; in general, a mail server that supports SSL uses port 465 instead of
25, because it can't do SSL and non-SSL on the same port.)

Also, SSL as such isn't used that much beyond HTTPS. Modern mail servers
are more likely to use negotiated encryption (STARTTLS) instead. So just
:starttls and not :ssl.
