Test email not working

Hi all,

I was hoping someone could help me figure out why i can't even send a test email to myself, let alone an ebook.

This is the error message from trying the test email:

Quote:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "site-packages/calibre/gui2/wizard/send_email.py", line 201, in test_email_settings
File "site-packages/calibre/utils/smtp.py", line 116, in sendmail
File "site-packages/calibre/utils/smtp.py", line 108, in sendmail_direct
IOError: Failed to send mail: error(65, 'No route to host')
Which is essentially the same error i get when I try to send an ebook.
I'm fairly certain the problem is within calibre because I can ping imap.gmail.com fine from my terminal and even connect to it via telnet.

I'm using the most recent version of calibre and Mac OS X 10.8.5.

I tried searching for other posts, but only found this with no solution:

Thanks in advance for any help,
