Hey @Magdalena Wilhelm! 😀

So sorry you’re running into that error when attempting to connect. We’re not able to dig into the error logs for your account to get any further details on exactly what’s causing that timeout. So your best bet here will be to reach out to our Support team to investigate further. 

You can contact them using our Get Help form.

Please do keep us posted on how you get on!

@SamB : I send a message to Zapier and they could help me. I had used the wrong Port..Port 465 is not available… so I used the Port 587 and the right hostname now it works. 😁
