 * Hi,
 * I get an error pop up message when trying to send a test mail from smtp gmail
   settings:
 * Request Error not JSON
    Fatal Error: cannot declare class phpmailerExceptionm
   because the name is already in use…
 * I know it’s not ideal, but currently I have very few registered users so I want
   to use my Gmail account to sent emails for now.
 * All the setting are correct and enabled – working fine with Contact form 7.
 * Thanks

 * It looks like you have another plugin install to manage your WordPress emails.
   That’s what causing that error message.
