Email Account Setup Error UnknownHost Exception

Hi,

I'm getting the below error while trying to connect to gmail server.

I'm not using any proxy settings.

Use SMTPS is not checked.

Port is 587.

When SMTPS was checked, port was 465. Still then the error was same. Need urgent resolution.

Also I have lowered the security access in Gmail Settings. Still no help.

If you are running this from VM then there could be a possibility that your VM doesn't have internet access. Try accessing the internet, If not able to access then try to update network Adapter Settings.
