Default [courier-users] gMail as Mail Relay success

I have now figured out the problem, and a very simple problem it is...

I have to thank the previous posted (I'm using cone right now to type this
so I can't go back and look at his name) as the instruction there was to
check out INSTALL about the TLS issue. I understand now why it doesn't work
that way.

However, I searched install.html for "esmtpauthclient" and found version
notes for upgrading from v0.54 and v0.55. These talked about how the auth
client logic had changed in matching the host. It dawned on me... What if
the server is reading the sever name up to the whitespace and matching that
with the server name in the auth file up to the whitepsace. It would then
include the port number since the syntax is server.name,port not sever.name
port. I went into my esmtpauthclient file and added the port number for
gMail's mail server. It works and properly authenticates now.

Once again, thank you to the list for help on this one.

However, after trying to send this very message out to the group it is clear
that using gMail won't work and through no fault of courier. Google
rewrites the "From" header when you send via their SMTP server to originate
from the gMail account used to authenticate with. Tricky.

Unless someone has done this with any actual success?
