Gmail provides a service where you can POP your email from your Hetzner hosted domain name; allowing you to receive all your mail on your Gmail account. The error occurs when trying to send email for your domain name with Hetzner via Gmail.

Gmails authenticated sending requires the use of TLS/SSL as their online service runs on https; this is in conflict with Hetzner’s service as we do not support mail encryption (TLS and SSL). If you need to send a message from Gmail please use your Gmail email address.
