I think this is not the best place to ask, you should look for some network mail list, but, ... this type of message means that the network layer can't find a route to google's smtp. See if you can ping that addresses, probally no.. Looking at that timeout message, yes it seems that you're being trolled by some firewall. I've tested here and I do really can connect, see: [geckos@csi24 ~]$ telnet smtp.gmail.com 465 Trying 74.125.141.109... Connected to smtp.gmail.com. Escape character is '^]'. ^C^PConnection closed by foreign host. [geckos@csi24 ~]$ telnet smtp.gmail.com 587 Trying 74.125.141.108... Connected to smtp.gmail.com.
