[Sussex] Secure connections

[Desmond Armstrong]

I have tried the various combinations but all refuse. By authentication 
I assume userid and password for gmail but it fails even before asking 
for authentication. I shall try again though.

I am assuming it is actually possible to bypass the tiscali smtp and to 
use gmail directly. The message I was getting from Tiscali was use the 
'gmail servers instead'. I am sorry I don't have exact wording of message.
