mmm, i found an article in
https://noorul.nipl-silly-url-fixme.ath.cx/wiki/WebPageMaintenance.php

"Even though phpmailer supports SMTP authentication, it lacks the
funtionality to use SSL connection. I couldn't use this class to
connect to gmail SMTP server because it requires SSL connection. The
only option left for me was to find out mail exchange servers of gmail
and interact with it. This is alright because my requirement is only to
send mail to a gmail account."

So PHPmailer can't be used to send mails trough gmail servers right?
