Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) - SMTP Error.

[whitepho]

Everytime i try to use Amazon Simple Email Service with SMTP credentials, i get the error "unable to connect to ssl://email-smtp.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com:465 (Connection timed out)". Do you block SMTP connections outside your web servers?
My domain is whitephoenix.tk.

I'm still getting the error: "2: fsockopen(): unable to connect to ssl://email-smtp.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com:465 (Connection timed out)".

It looks like something is wrong elsewhere. I just ran an outgoing connection to the host you provided and it worked fine

[root@x12 ~]# telnet email-smtp.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com 465
Trying 18.196.135.205...
