 * Hi [@jjwebhosting](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jjwebhosting/),
 * Thanks for reaching out! According to the debug log you shared, it appears that
   you are getting this error because your server is blocking the SMTP connection
   requests or due to some other hosting-related issue.
 * Could you please contact your hosting/email support with the above debug log,
   and they should be able to assist you further.
 * In the meantime, you may try configuring an [alternative mailer](https://wpmailsmtp.com/docs/a-complete-guide-to-wp-mail-smtp-mailers/)
   as well.
 * I hope this helps. Thanks!
