[EAS] email configuration for Gmail?

[ray at electronicstheory.com]

I run circa 150 boxes, each using a single GMAIL account as a point of access.

That being said:

You must make certain that all routers to the outside world are open for the
following ports or you will have problems with email/CAP/network connectivity,
etc:

PORT    STATE SERVICE
22/tcp  open  ssh
80/tcp  open  http
443/tcp open  https
587/tcp open  smtp
631/tcp open  ipp
8000/tcp open

Good luck getting your IT department to cooperate in opening all these
ports...... they work with a conflict of interest (1) make sure everything
connected works with the outside world, 2) make sure nothing from the outside
world can get in).

at bare minimum, ports 80,443, and 587 must be functional.  It may or may not
work without the others, but I don't suggest trying it, lest something not work
that you would otherwise want to.
