What is the exact error message if you try to send a mail? Your local 
mailserver, that authenticates to gmail, or your mail client should give 
a more detailed description of the error and without this details we can 
only gues what is going on :-(.

Maybe you have to configure your gmail account that also insecure 
client logins are alowed. That is what I've had to do for some Google 
mail accounts to be able to use them with linux...

Cheers and all the best from Munich,
