SID-00878: Can't send mail using Net::SMTP. 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS

ERROR Can't send mail using Net::SMTP. 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. j3sm18162932qcs.1

Too many failures sending mail %PARAM2% %PARAM3% %PARAM4%

I'm trying to use gmail as my smtp. Gmail requires a secure connection, which may be the source of the trouble.

For c# I do this,

SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient(); smtpClient.EnableSsl = true; // gmail requires this

Any ideas?
