SOLVED - Mediatemple (gs) SMTP email - help please

[eluser]theshiftexchange[/eluser]
Hi everyone,

I have smtp email working for 'gmail' via my Mediatemple (gs) service ok.

However I now want to use my own domain via mediatemple to send my emails, rather than gmail. Below is my email.php config. Anyone here use mediatemple email service? I'd appreciate a copy of your config settings, or any thoughts as to why this fails?

Code:

$config['protocol']     = 'smtp';
$config['smtp_host']    = 'sXXXXXX.gridserver.com';
$config['smtp_port']    = 465;
$config['smtp_user']    = '[email protected]';
$config['smtp_pass']    = 'MYPASSWORD';
$config['smtp_timeout'] = 30;
$config['newline']      = "\r\n";
$config['crlf']         = "\r\n";
$config['mailtype']     = 'html';
$config['charset']      = 'utf-8';

p.s. if anyone knows how to 'display' the Mediatemple error as to why my email is failing, that would be good aswell - I currently have no idea why it fails...
