          Are you connecting from home network or your office network, have you checked whether you are able to telnet the server??

          yes, i am able to ping SMTP server, and i am in office network.

          i tried to telnet it failed, i tried with different server, still same error, its some thing wrong with Jenkins.

          If telnet is not working ask your network to enable telnet for the SMTP server then only you can use Smtp on jenkins.
