Following this accepted response , the possible reasons why you can not connect to the SMTP server can be:

It is necessary to use $mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls'; instead of ssl.
Let the port be 587
That the user or password is incorrect.

Additionally, I would use $mail->IsHTML(true); to specify the format in which the message travels.

I see that the SMTP configuration is correct, the problem you have may be because the credentials you use are wrong, that the mail has not configured permissions for applications to use it to send emails or that your server does not have configured shipments of mail.

It has happened to me with XAMPP in local that does not send me the emails, by mail () or by SMTP, but when moving my application to a server that I am sure is configured it works correctly.

Greetings!

For sending mail SMTP uses port 587 and authenticate tls

$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls'; 
$mail->Host = 'smtp.gmail.com'; 
$mail->Port = '587'; 
$mail->Username = '[email protected]'; 
$mail->Password = '***';
