email ssl

hi,  
please help me how to set email with ssl enabled.
my web hosted in arvixe, and domain name is test.com.tw, ssl installed. i can config smtp.test.com.tw as smtp server in gmail, it works fine. but can't work in nopcommerce email setting.

email: [email protected]
user name: Shop Admin
host: test.com.tw
port: 465
user: [email protected]
password: mypassword
ssl: checked

the error message is "The operation has timed out. "

double check host name and try restart application.

well, the error message is still the same...
is there anything i should check first?

host would be smtp.test.com.tw  not test.com.tw

i've tried that too, and it works in gmail.
in gamil "settings/accounts and import", i can add an new "Send mail as" account with smtp.test.com.tw, port 465,  and "Check mail from other accounts " is work, too. send/receve email from this new account works fine.

thanks, L.K, i've tried port 25, but it can't work.
error message:
The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: SMTP authentication is required.

Does it work then you "UNCHECK" the SSL option?

Did you look at the links that I provided above?

i visited all those links, and try lots of config ways, and it goes nowhere...

if uncheck ssl,
error message:
The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: SMTP authentication is required.

i follow the link below
