Server configuration:  smtp.gmail.com

Authentication:

      Plain

User name:  bart nielsen gmail com



So, when I try this, I get the error message:

(authentication required)

I think it's trying to authenticate the user:

      bart nielsen gmail com

at host:

      smtp.gmail.com



If I leave the @gmail.com off, then it tries to authenticate me as:

      bart nielsen smtp gmail com


You need to specify the port for the gmail account, which if i remember
right is 465. so your smtp server settings would be smtp.gmail.com:465.
And am sure that the authentication is not plain.
