  - hosts: localhost
    tasks:
     - name: sending mail
       mail:
         host: "smtp.gmail.com"
         port: 25
         username: "xxxxxxxxxxxxxx@gmail.com"
         password: "xxxxxxxxxxxxx"
         to: "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@gmail.com"
         subject: "Ansible-report"
         body: "Hello, this is an e-mail. I hope you like it ;-)"

This code is fine...but im getting error like this.......I tried 25,465.587
ports

According to the example in the documentation
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/mail_module.html#examples
it's port 587.

And that's work for me.

[root@ansible-hyd ~]# ansible-playbook email.yml

PLAY [localhost]

TASK [setup]

TASK [sending mail]

fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "failed": true, "msg":

Do you get the same message with port 587?
If so, are port 587 open for outgoing connections?
