Error: SMTP conect() failed

Hi there!

After submitting the form, I get back " 2018-01-24 20:03:27 SERVER -> CLIENT: 220 smtp.gmail.com ESMTP g127sm571957iog.85 - gsmtp 2018-01-24 20:03:27 CLIENT -> SERVER: EHLO localhost 2018-01-24 20:03:27 SERVER -> CLIENT: 250-smtp.gmail.com at your service, [75.141.245.20]250-SIZE 35882577250-8BITMIME250-STARTTLS250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES250-PIPELINING250-CHUNKING250 SMTPUTF8 2018-01-24 20:03:27 CLIENT -> SERVER: STARTTLS 2018-01-24 20:03:28 SERVER -> CLIENT: 220 2.0.0 Ready to start TLS SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host. 2018-01-24 20:03:28 CLIENT -> SERVER: QUIT 2018-01-24 20:03:28 2018-01-24 20:03:28 SMTP connect() failed. https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/wiki/Troubleshooting Mailer Error: SMTP connect() failed. https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/wiki/Troubleshooting "

Instead of the thank you page. Is this because I'm using MAMP as a local host rather than workspaces?

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!
