Of late, any attempt to get to newsgroups via MacSOUP fails: It times out with the message "Could not open connection to SMTP server on host 'smtp.gmail.com'." Prior to connecting, Little Snitch asks for permission, with "Only port 25 TCP (smtp)" selected by default. Selecting any of the other choices — "Any Connection," "Only smtp.gmail.com," and "Only smtp.gmail.com and port 25 TCP (smtp)" — doesn't help.
I checked my MacSOUP Settings, and they appear to be the same as I've always been using. I couldn't find any help in the MacSOUP Manual (though, admittedly, I've always found the Manual a bit difficult to understand).
Any suggestions?
