send.ahasend.com accepts SMTP on port 465 with implicit TLS and AUTH PLAIN or AUTH LOGIN. Every page that said 465 is not supported now gives its settings: the shared SMTP settings table, SMTP, troubleshooting, SMTP errors, facts, quickstart, glossary, SMTP credentials, PHP and Django. SMTP adds the client setting per library and what a client set to the wrong mode sees. Adds a Swaks example and an October 2026 changelog entry.

Tested live with sandbox messages: Nodemailer secure: true, Python smtplib.SMTP_SSL, Django EMAIL_USE_SSL, Swaks --tls-on-connect (PLAIN and LOGIN), and both wrong-mode failures. Not tested: the PHPMailer and MailKit settings. mint broken-links passes.

The description had 163 characters after adding port 465, and the lint allows 120 to 160. It now has 155.
