Unable to send email on error from logback

问题:

I am doing a POC to send email using logback and Java 8. On error we want to send an email to the user so i referred here and my full configuration :

import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;

public class App {

    private static final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(App.class);

    public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
        System.setProperty("java.net.preferIPv4Stack", "true");
        logger.trace("trace message");
        logger.warn("warn message");
        logger.error("error message, a very long error message!");
    }
}

My logback.xml looks like below :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration debug="true" scan="true" scanPeriod="5 seconds">
 <appender name="EMAIL" class="ch.qos.logback.classic.net.SMTPAppender">
        <smtpHost>smtp.gmail.com</smtpHost>
        <username>[e-mail]</username>
        <password>password</password>
        <smtpPort>25</smtpPort>
        <to>[e-mail]</to>
        <from>[e-mail]</from>
        <STARTTLS>true</STARTTLS>
        <asynchronousSending>false</asynchronousSending>
        <subject>Testing %logger
        {20}

        - %m</subject>
        <layout class="ch.qos.logback.classic.PatternLayout">
            <pattern>%d
                {HH:mm:ss.SSS}

                [%thread] %-5level %logger
                {1}

                -%msg%n
            </pattern>
        </layout>
    </appender>
    <root level="ERROR">
        <appender-ref ref="EMAIL" />
    </root>
</configuration>

I see when I run main class the configuration is hanging. I do not see any error messages also. Kindly suggest.

UPDATE: OK ... I see that the port 25 or 587 throws the following error I have also referred this :

20:07:02,050 |-ERROR in ch.qos.logback.classic.net.SMTPAppender[EMAIL] - Error occurred while sending e-mail notification. javax.mail.MessagingException: Could not connect to SMTP host: smtp.gmail.com, port: 587;

Am I missing something here? one point I want to mention is the from and to address are same, not sure if that matters.
