I am trying to send email via a gmail account.
 Using  smtp.gmail.com  with port 465
 Google says it requires authentification and SSL.
 Is there a special Blat setting for this?
 Should this work ok?
 

 I'm getting "smtp server error.  not a socket"
 

 (this application is running on AWS, Windows, FoxPro 9)
 

        Thanks,   Art Lieberman
