Broken pipe issues

So I'm returning to the Kindle and Calibre fold after several years of not really using either. Got the Paperwhite today and really like it.

I'm setting it up so that Calibre will grab any new articles from about 5 blogs I like to follow and then send them to my Kindle on a weekly basis. I've got it as far as making the book, but the email settings seem to be borked.
Code:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "site-packages/calibre/gui2/wizard/send_email.py", line 173, in test_email_settings
  File "site-packages/calibre/utils/smtp.py", line 128, in sendmail
  File "site-packages/calibre/utils/smtplib.py", line 307, in connect
IOError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe


Log:
I started with my normal gmail account but realized that it probably wasn't the greatest to start with because it had two factor authentication. I then used an alternate gmail which doesn't, no luck. I then set up an outlook.com address, same result. I've tried TLS port 587 and SSL port 465 on all three.

If I attach the file to an email and send it to my Kindle address, it shows up in the personal documents and downloads beautifully, so its not an issue on Amazon's end.
