Well, based on the error returned by PHP mailer, there is a problem
talking to your mail server.

Can  you paste here the mail configuration that you put in Mahara (minus
any passwords or private info of course)?

In particular, are you using the right value (ssl or tls) for the
smtpsecure parameter?
