[sllug-members]: Google Applications SMTP and PHP

[Michael Heath]

The first thing I notice is that, while I'm not familiar with Swift,
it doesn't seem like you've taken into account that Google SMTP access
requires STARTTLS/SSL access for SMTP. Thats a start - though, it
doesn't really explain why the connection would be dropping dead with
nothing sent, as STARTTLS comes after EHLO.

I'd be really curious on how you get this to work. I hope my random
comments might help some.
