Documentation: Correct blocked SMTP ports for GKE

Max Winterstein requested to merge (removed):patch-32 into master

What does this MR do?

Correct the note on blocked ports at GKE / GCP. They no longer block 465 and 587 outgoing. See their documentation: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/tutorials/sending-mail/#choosing_an_email_service_to_use

Tested on GKE using adhoc container:

root@tmp-579f46f469-pc8fg:/# curl -m 5 portquiz.net:25
curl: (28) Connection timed out after 5001 milliseconds
root@tmp-579f46f469-pc8fg:/# curl -m 5 portquiz.net:465
Port 465 test successful!
