Updates the Email Configuration documentation to mention that port 2465
is now supported alongside port 465 for implicit TLS (SMTPS)
connections. Also clarifies the terminology: 587 uses STARTTLS while
465/2465 use implicit TLS from byte 1.

**Agent Response**

> I've completed my analysis and created a documentation suggestion for
this commit.
>
> ## Summary
>
> The commit `2288c9c` adds port 2465 as a supported implicit TLS
(SMTPS) port alongside the existing port 465. This is a small but
meaningful fix for users who use non-standard SMTP ports.
>
> ## Documentation Change
>
> I created a suggestion that updates the **Email Configuration**
section in the Emails guide:
>
> **Before:**
> > Port: SMTP port (typically 587 for TLS or 465 for SSL)
>
> **After:**
> > Port: SMTP port (typically 587 for STARTTLS, or 465/2465 for
implicit TLS)
>
> This change:
> 1. Documents the newly supported port 2465 for implicit TLS
connections
> 2. Clarifies the terminology (STARTTLS vs implicit TLS) to be more
technically precise
>
> The suggestion is available for review at:
https://app.gopromptless.ai/change-history/f3f4cc12-c710-4d2d-96cd-e5443c52c8f1
