Port number for gmail outgoing mail server

The port number for Gmail's outgoing mail server (SMTP) is typically 587. However, you may need to use a different port number depending on your email client or device settings.

Here are some common port numbers used for Gmail's outgoing mail server:

• Port 587: This is the default port number used by Gmail for sending outgoing emails. This port is usually used for TLS (Transport Layer Security) encryption.
• Port 25: This is the traditional port number used for SMTP, but it's not recommended to use this port for Gmail as it's not encrypted and may be blocked by some networks.
• Port 465: This port is sometimes used for SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption, but it's not recommended to use this port as it's not as secure as port 587.

To set up your email client or device to use Gmail's outgoing mail server, you'll need to enter the following information:

• Server: smtp.gmail.com
• Port: 587 (or 25 or 465, depending on your settings)
• Username: Your Gmail address (e.g., [your_email_address]@gmail.com)
• Password: Your Gmail password

Note that you may need to enable "Less secure app access" in your Google Account settings if you're using a less secure email client or device. You can do this by going to your Google Account settings, clicking on "Security," and then clicking on "Less secure app access."
