You can use Do-more Logger to help troubleshoot. To enable, turn on ST36 ($EnableMsgDump), and change the value in DST61 ($SysMsgLevel) from 1 (meaning only give ERR) to 2 (meaning give both ERR and MSG). Then go to the Launchpad and in the Applications window double-click on "Do-more Logger." Once this is done, and your EMAIL instruction is executed, you will see meaningful messages displayed in the Do-more Logger window that will help you see exactly what is happening with your EMAIL and the Email Server it is attempting to connect to.

When you are finished troubleshooting don't forget to set DST61 ($SysMsgLevel) back to 1, and turn off ST36 ($EnableMsgDump).

Designer 2.8 menu Debug->Do-more Logger helps with setting/resetting those values

Is it really necessary to revert DST61 and ST36 back when finished?  What are the drawbacks to enabling them in $tFirstScan and leaving them for entire runtime?

ST36 is generating an Ethernet packet for every MSG or ERR value. It isn't a killer, but you might not want the overhead.

I believe they're broadcast packets, so that affects more than just the PLC itself.

this might mean your email was trying to get out but the email server you are using sucks
