Sendmail Error [EOF]

I had been using the sendmail() function to send a notification once my program was finished. But now I keep getting this message.
Error using sendmail (line 169)
[EOF]
Error in send_text_message (line 86)
sendmail(emailto,subject,message)
This is the code:
mail ='-------@gmail.com'; % Your mail id
password ='-------'; % Your password
host = 'smtp.gmail.com';
port = '465';
emailto = '-------';
props = java.lang.System.getProperties;
props.setProperty( 'mail.smtp.user', mail );
props.setProperty( 'mail.smtp.host', host );
props.setProperty( 'mail.smtp.port', port );
props.setProperty( 'mail.smtp.starttls.enable', 'true' );
props.setProperty( 'mail.smtp.debug', 'true' );
props.setProperty( 'mail.smtp.auth', 'true' );
props.setProperty( 'mail.smtp.socketFactory.port', port );
props.setProperty( 'mail.smtp.socketFactory.class', 'javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory' );
props.setProperty( 'mail.smtp.socketFactory.fallback', 'false' );
sendmail('emailto','Matlab-opt','test');
I can't figure out what is going on.

Why is emailto not a valid email address? That might be the problem. The recipient can't be 'emailto'. It must be 'emailto@something.com'
You also gave 'emailto' as the recipient rather than emailto (not in single quotes) which would have send '------' to sendmail(). However neither of those is right. You need to do something like
emailto = 'zachary@whatever.com';
subject = 'Just a test message';
message = ver; % Get MATLAB toolboxes and license number.
sendmail(emailto, subject, message); % No single quotes around emailto.

Then I don't know. Maybe it's a firewall issue. It works for me in the attached demo. Call tech support and they'll figure it out for you.
